The airport offered 4.34 million departing international seats, or 8.7 million seats in both directions. London Heathrow ranked second with 4 million seats, followed by Seoul Incheon with 3.78 million. Despite ongoing disruptions to regional airspace and flight networks, DXB has maintained strong connectivity, supported by rising travel demand and airline operations.

Passenger traffic also continued to increase, reaching 5 million in June from 3.5 million in April and 4.5 million in May. Meanwhile, construction of Al Maktoum International Airport is progressing, with the facility planned to become the world’s largest airport upon completion.

The UAE’s renewable energy capacity increased more than 63-fold over the past decade, rising from 129 MW in 2015 to over 8.2 GW in 2025. Total clean-energy capacity, including nuclear power, reached 13,805 MW, with clean sources accounting for 32.4% of electricity generation.

The country is targeting a 35% clean-energy contribution by 2031, supported by more than AED190 billion already invested in the sector. Dubai’s Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park reached 3,860 MW, with its 2030 target raised to more than 8,000 MW.

Abu Dhabi is advancing major solar and battery projects, including a 5.2 GW solar plant paired with 19 GWh of storage. The UAE is also strengthening its electricity network through smarter grid management, AI-powered monitoring and greater regional interconnection.

Announced by the UAE Ministry of Finance on August 6, a new tax measure on electronic smoking devices and va**ng liquids has come into effect today. While a 100% excise tax on to***co and va**ng products has been in place since 2019, the new measure introduces a minimum excise price of AED 1 per millilitre for va**ng liquids.

The existing minimum excise price will continue to apply to ci******es, sh**ha to***co and other ready-to-use to***co products. The measure aims to improve excise tax implementation, strengthen compliance and keep the system aligned with changes in the to***co market. It also introduces more consistent standards across smoking products.

The number underneath this one: 81,200 resident millionaires in Dubai, up 102% in a decade, with a net 9,800 arriving in the UAE last year - the largest inflow of any country (Henley & Partners, 2025).

Monaco still has the higher ratio. It also has 2.08 square kilometres, no airport, and nowhere to put a workforce.

That's the whole difference. Every other zero-tax jurisdiction is a postcode. This one is a labour market.

DEWA has developed a standardised digital design for 132kV substations to improve the efficiency and reliability of Dubai’s electricity network. The new design reduces the time needed for substation planning and construction by more than two months and cuts costs by around AED5 million per substation.

The design has supported the construction of 90 substations, including 23 commissioned in the first half of 2026. It eliminates around 8,000 electronic components and 140 kilometres of copper wiring, while reducing the construction area by 220 square metres and annual carbon emissions by around 447 tonnes.

The initiative has also improved the consistency of engineering work and allows approved designs to be reused in future projects. The practice has received a six-star rating at the International Best Practice Competition.

Abu Dhabi has reopened a key E20 interchange linking Khalifa City and Zayed City ahead of the new school year. The upgrade adds two lanes, increasing capacity to five lanes in each direction.

Further work will expand the E20 from three to five lanes, with a new interchange and additional lanes expected by Q1 2027. The project also includes new bridges, ramps and traffic-light junctions to improve connectivity and ease congestion.

Dubai ranked eighth globally for billionaire residents in 2025, with 43 billionaires, two more than the previous year. The city shared the position with Shenzhen and ranked ahead of Mumbai, Paris and Washington DC. The UAE had 59 billionaires, up 11.3%, with a combined wealth of $201 billion.

Dubai accounted for nearly 73% of the country’s billionaire population. The city’s growing wealth sector is also supported by the expansion of the Dubai International Financial Centre, which had 592 wealth and asset management firms by June 2026. Dubai continues to attract wealthy individuals, with most of the 9,800 millionaires expected to move to the UAE in 2025 projected to settle in the city.
