Dubai Airports has confirmed that it has lifted all remaining capacity restrictions at DXB and the airport is back to normal operations.
The ability to prioritise large aircraft has enabled a return to regular scheduled activity sooner than anticipated. "We continue to work with our airline partners and stakeholders in order to ensure that the few remaining passengers affected by the disruption reach their ultimate destination as soon possible,"
A Press conference held on Thursday revealed that a total of 64 flights were diverted to neighbouring airports during this "recovery period", and 242 flights - 116 arrivals and 126 departures - were cancelled.
However, all airport facilities are now fully operational, as officials revealed at the Press conference.
Flydubai cancelled three flights on Friday to Doha, Kuwait and Muscat, and two flights to Basra and Erbil on Saturday, as stated on its website.
Qatar Airways told Khaleej Times that nine Dubai-Doha flights were cancelled on Friday, while eight Saturday flights from Dubai have been cancelled. Their flights from DWC and other parts of the UAE continue to operate.
