Dubai´s main airport, the world's busiest for international travel, will overhaul one of its two runways for 45 days, starting in May, the operator said on Tuesday. The closure will likely lead to flight reductions ahead of the traditional start of the summer season.
The shutdown of the northern runway - part of a project to upgrade the airfield to ensure "safety and efficient operations" - will begin on May 9 and last until June 22, the airport said.
