Dubai terminal opening expected to go smoothly

Consumers are optimistic that the opening of the new Terminal 3 at Dubai International Airport will go to plan.

This is the finding of Arabian Business, which polled readers in order to gauge the public mood regarding the facility.

More than 8 out of 10 respondents were positive that the first phase of the opening would go smoothly.

Indeed, they dismissed the idea that Dubai Airport could possibly experience scenes similar to those witnessed when Terminal 5 opened at London Heathrow.

The study also found that 35% think airport officials have done a good job in the run-up to today's opening.

Terminal 3 was tested with various drills and trial runs in order to make sure the various facilities were working as they should.

Dubai was recently recommended to winter sun-seekers in the UK by the Sun newspaper.

According to the publication, the region can be reached by plane in just 7 hours and offers temperatures of up to 38 degrees C at this time of year.
