These results not only anticipate the future but actively shape it and deliver its achievements. They reinforce the UAE’s global standing on the aviation and travel map, highlight the sector’s effective contribution to economic growth and competitiveness, and demonstrate the nation’s pioneering role in establishing an advanced, efficient, and sustainable aviation ecosystem that integrates technological innovation with the highest standards of safety and service quality.”
He added: “Our national efforts continue to focus on developing aviation infrastructure, pioneering projects, and related activities, while strengthening cooperation with partners and relevant entities at local and international levels. The aim is to provide exceptional travel experiences that enhance the UAE’s appeal to passengers and air cargo from around the world, diversify aviation services and products, build national human capital, and encourage the entry of Emirati talent into the sector alongside increased investment. These efforts align with the 10th Principle of the UAE Charter of Economic Principles, which seeks to establish the country as the world’s leading logistics hub and a central axis for global aviation, transportation, and human mobility.”

She noted that UAE airports welcomed more than one billion passengers over the past 10 years and recorded over 6.4 million aircraft movements. The UAE’s high rankings across various global aviation competitiveness indicators are the culmination of decades of dedicated effort and continuous monitoring of this vital sector’s growth.
Global Leadership
The aviation sector’s achievements have strengthened the UAE’s competitiveness, earning it global and regional leadership across indicators measuring air transport efficiency and quality. The UAE ranked first worldwide in the Air Transport Quality Index according to the 2025 World Competitiveness Yearbook by the International Institute for Management Development (IMD). It also ranked third globally in both the Efficiency of Air Transport Services and Infrastructure Index and Available Seat Kilometers per week, according to the 2024 Travel & Tourism Development Index by the World Economic Forum.

Numbers fell sharply in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with traffic dropping to 38.3 million passengers, reaching a 70% decline, the steepest in the history of global aviation.
Recovery and Expansion
The sector began to recover in 2021, with passenger numbers rising to 45.9 million (19.6% growth). In 2022, growth surged by 120%, surpassing 101 million passengers.
