Dubai Airports is the operator responsible for Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC). The company manages terminal and airfield operations, passenger experience, airport commercial services and capacity planning across Dubai’s two-airport system.

For passengers, airlines and airport businesses, Dubai Airports is the operating organisation behind terminal processes and service standards rather than the civil-aviation regulator. Its decisions can affect terminal use, passenger flows, infrastructure and how DXB and DWC work together within Dubai’s aviation network.
