The substantial increase in charges left many residents financially burdened, as they strive to retrieve their stranded vehicles
As incoming passenger flights to UAE from six restricted countries are set to resume from August 5 (Thursday), customer service helplines are ringing off the hook.
A major increase in passenger traffic is expected in the coming weeks after the National Emergency Crisis and Disasters Management Authority (NCEMA) allowed vaccinated expats to return to the UAE and also resumed transit travel through the local airports from August 5.

"Our contact centres are experiencing a greater volume of calls than anticipated. If your call is not related to travel within the next 48 hours, please consider calling back later," the airline said.
"If your flight has been cancelled or impacted by route suspensions due to Covid‑19 restrictions, you don't need to call us immediately for rebooking. You can simply hold on to your Emirates ticket and when flights resume, get in touch with us, or your booking office to make new travel plans," the airline added.
