Default Dubai Airport

Morning,

Found this series last night and watched the first three episodes;

Ultimate Airport Dubai

It's online to be streamed and is, for me, really interesting. Everything from construction to training to how busy the place is etc.

It's a proper suck-off-Dubai programme but still good.

Also...I never knew that Dubai Airport (I assume T3) is the biggest building in the world by sqft or something. That's mental.

It's a great series - as much as I complain when delays at T3, it shows how much shit they have to deal with.

In the first episode holding the Sydney flight for delayed transfers but not being able to hold it for too long so they make it there before the curfew etc was great to watch.

Then I realised that they'd said they do that battle against time EVERY day. Mental.

Glad you guys find it interesting. There is a whole lot of stuff going on in the background that the general public don't realise.
One of the big problems right now is the level of growth. 15% growth is staggering and extraordinarily difficult to cope with when your corporate infrastructure was never planned for it.

There was a series about Lagos Airport. That was horrific. Those who complain about the ME need a short transfer to West Africa.
