DUBAI, 30 August 2004 — Dubai’s second airport is set to open before the end of 2006, after the department of Civil Aviation (DCA) brought forward its plans for a Jebel Ali airport by at least a decade, a senior official from Dubai Department of Civil Aviation said. The long-awaited project was originally scheduled to open between 2015 and 2020, but the plan has now been brought forward because of the growing traffic levels at Dubai International Airport, a news report here said.
