Dubai International's Terminal 1 and Concourse D will reopen on 24 June 2021.
The facilities were shut down on 25th March 2020 due to temporary suspensions of operations at Dubai International Airport (DXB) due to Coronavirus (Covid-19).
Dubai International Airport Terminal 1 was home to 40+ airlines that are still operating at Terminal 2 and Terminal 3.
However, once the Dubai International Airport Terminal 1 reopens on 24th June 2021, 40+ airlines will be able to return to their home.
This is why Dubai International Airports advises its passengers to confirm their terminal of departure and arrival with their respective airline.
Dubai Airports to Reopen Terminal 1 and Concourse D this Month:
Recently, Dubai Airports has advised its passengers to confirm their terminal of departure and arrival with their respective airline.
The reason?
Reopening of Dubai International Airport Terminal 1 and Concourse D have been announced and 40+ airlines are therefore expected to return to DXB Terminal 1.
Dubai International Airport Terminal 1 was the primary location of 40+ airlines that shifted to DXB Terminal 2 and 3 after the temporary closure of facilities.
The temporary closure of Dubai Airport Terminal 1 came about on the 25th of March 2020 due to Coronavirus (Covid-19).
After this point, 40+ airlines had to shift to Terminal 2 and Terminal 3 for the time being.
Well, after roughly 14 months, T1 is back on track after the announcement of reopening Dubai International Airport Terminal 1.
After this, all the 40+ airlines will be getting back to their original spot after 14 months of temporary closure.
Since the reopening of Dubai International Airport Terminal 1 is announced on the 24th of June.
This is why Dubai Airport has advised its passengers to contact their respective airlines and confirm their terminal of departure and arrival.
However, the complete relocation is to be achieved by the end of June 2021.
Now see what Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, the Chairman of Dubai Airports has to say about the reopening of Dubai International Airport Terminal 1 and Concourse D:
"This move signals our confidence that the outlook for the rest of the year and beyond is one of optimism, as well as being a clear indication of Dubai's intent to lead the aviation industry in its efforts to enable social and economic recovery of the world," Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman Dubai Airports.
Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman Dubai Airports further adds:
"Dubai's aviation sector has been at the forefront of a global campaign to restore vital international air services with the opening of quarantine-free travel corridors between the UAE and multiple countries around the world,"
Dubai Airports Chairman is all positive and optimistic about reopening Dubai International Airport Terminal 1. To him, it's a gesture that is going to cast a very positive impression on the countries around the world that are exchanging blows with the Covid-19 pandemic.
Final Words.
Dubai Airports have decided to reopen Dubai International Airport Terminal 1 and Concourse D on 24th June 2021.
This move will bring back the 40+ airlines that were operating on Terminal 2 and Terminal 3 after March 25, 2020.
The airlines were moved to Terminal Two and Terminal Three due to the temporary closure that T1 went through.
As for now, the reopening of Dubai International Aiport Terminal 1 is two days away after almost 14 months.
This is why Dubai Airports have advised its passengers to confirm their arrival and departure. Whereas the complete relocation is to be done by the end of June.
