The company is anticipating handling in excess of 50,000 flights over the course of June through to August, as well as some 20m passengers and 30m bags from around the world. At this volume, dnata will be handling an average of one flight every 80 seconds at the airport.
Jon Conway, Divisional Senior Vice President, commented on the challenge of the summer season, saying: "Our team in Dubai has an extra challenge this year: it will be the airport's busiest summer ever and each member is ready to ensure each passenger and piece of bag arrives seamlessly.
"From aircraft appearance, baggage and passenger handling, pushback and water services, every person plays an integral part in safely turning each plane around, often against considerable time constraints."
