Dubai, UAE – In a new affirmation of its status as a leading global aviation hub, Dubai has recorded a remarkable 15% growth in the issuance of aircraft landing permits during the third quarter of 2025, compared to the same period last year. This increase includes passenger, cargo, and private aircraft, reflecting a significant rise in air traffic demand and reinforcing the confidence of airlines and international partners in the efficiency of the operational systems managed by the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority.
This growth is a result of the continuous efforts by DCAA to enhance the emirate’s position as one of the world’s most prominent aviation hubs. In recent years, DCAA has focused on developing its digital infrastructure and improving the quality of its operational services, with a particular emphasis on simplifying landing procedures and the issuance of aircraft permits. This approach has contributed to increasing the efficiency of air traffic and facilitating procedures for airlines, airports, and air cargo operators.
DCAA continues to adopt the latest digital and smart systems for flight tracking and air traffic management, ensuring smooth operations and enhancing Dubai’s attractiveness as a preferred destination for global airlines. This achievement is not only a testament to the efficiency of Dubai’s aviation infrastructure but also a clear indication of the forwardthinking vision the emirate is embracing to solidify its position as a gateway to the world.
