The £2.1bn mega-project to build world’s biggest airport in city loved by British tourists
By Paul Homewood
While the eco-loonies try to shut down UK air travel, Dubai is going to build the world’s biggest airport!
A huge new project to build the world’s biggest airport is underway in a city British tourists love, costing a whopping £2.1billion. As Dubai International Airport (DXB) approaches its maximum capacity, the UAE is in the process of formulating plans for its successor, set to be constructed on the outskirts of the city and anticipated to commence operations in the 2030s.
he planned new airport for Dubai essentially already exists in the form of Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), situated 23 miles southwest of the city, predominantly catering to freight planes.
Currently, a few passenger airlines, predominantly of Russian origin, are utilizing the facility, and Aeroflot is scheduled to inaugurate services in December.
At present, Al Maktoum Airport accommodates only 1.6 million passengers annually.
However, there are ambitious plans to significantly expand the hub, with the aim of accommodating up to 250 million passengers by 2050.

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT 
Surely they will only need to accommodate the private jets used by ecowarriors like Al Gore. Leonardo Di Caprio and King Charles?
The airport-building frenzy is also happening in, ahem, the Maldives. No irony at all. https://en.sun.mv/79996
A simple Google shows the Maldives attended COP28 looking for cash for the impact of climate change by other countries. I despair
But hey…the Maldives should already under water https://dailycaller.com/2018/09/21/maldives-global-warming-sea-level/
Nobody – in big business/Goverment (is their a difference) – ploughs billions and billions into a business bet like this unless they KNOW that NZC is merely a fake. If it wasn’t TPTB would be against it – or (it occurs to me) would be milking it.
Sheesh! There!
Same as all these new, beachfront resorts.

Berlin Brandenburg is only 2 runways but cost $7bn. Presumably this will have at least 6 runways to be bigger than Atlanta Hartsfield and Chicago O’Hare.
Yeah, I was thinking £2.1bn was a damn good price!
This does not ake sense. $2.1 billion would go nowhere in building a new airport of the size mentioned, even with slave labour which the UAE is notorius for.
