Dubai International Airport passenger traffic hit 32.6 million

admin 21:07 Add Comment
Dubai International’s passenger traffic hit 32.6 million in the first half of this year, making it the busiest six months in the airport’s record-studded history, according to the traffic report issued today by airport operator Dubai Airports.

According to the report, Dubai International handled a total of 5,537,908 passengers in June, a robust growth of 17.5 per cent from the 4,714,746 who passed through the airport in June 2012. Following seven consecutive months of five million-plus traffic, the year to date traffic reached 32,662,103 up 16.9 per cent from 27,931,639 in the first half of 2012. The average monthly passenger traffic recorded in the first six months of the year stood at 5.44 million compared to 4.65 million during the corresponding period in 2012.


In June, the top five country destinations in terms of passenger volumes were India, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Australia and Pakistan. Spurred by the launch of Qantas operations into Dubai in April, Australia (+44.4%) tops the list in terms of percentage growth, followed by Saudi Arabia (+35.0%), the UK (+21.9) and India (+21.0%). The AGCC continued to top the list of regions with the largest increase in total passenger numbers (+198,779 passengers), followed by Western Europe (+170,782), and the Indian subcontinent (+158,161). South America was the only region recording a fall in traffic (-5,508) in June.

Aircraft movements in June totalled 30,191 up 10.1 per cent from 27,428 registered during the same period in 2012. Year to date aircraft movements totalled 182,911, an increase of 7.4 per cent compared to 170,249 recorded during the first half of 2012.

Dubai International handled a total of 202,077 tonnes of freight compared to 194,992 tonnes in June 2012, an increase of 3.6 per cent. During the first half of 2013, air cargo volumes rose 10.2 per cent to 1,196,894 tonnes compared to 1,086,456 tonnes during the same period in 2012.

“The first half this year has been very satisfying with double-digit growth across all markets, boosted by the launch of 84 new services to 25 destinations. A major driver of growth was Emirates airline’s tie-up with Qantas and consequent launch of the Australian carrier’s operations into Dubai. A number of major events are lined up for the remainder of the year – including the opening of the passenger operations at Dubai World Central-Al Maktoum International in October followed by the Dubai Airshow 2013 in November – making the second half even more promising,” said Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports.

Passenger traffic at Dubai International is expected to surpass 65.4 million in 2013.

PSY 'Gentleman' hit more than 50 Million in one Day- Breaking YouTube Record

PSY 'Gentleman' hit more than 50 Million in one Day- Breaking YouTube Record! 




Psy's new music video had received more than 50 million views on YouTube by Monday, April 15, re-writing the video-sharing site's records for single-day hits.





PSY tweeted, "51million views in 40hours!! My God~!!!" the 35-year-old star exclaimed on his Twitter account.





Meanwhile, according to the report from Rappler, "Gentleman" was ranked in the top 10 songs on iTunes stores in a number of countries Monday, including France, Canada, New Zealand, Denmark and Sweden. It also topped the chart in Finland.





Of course, it will always be compared with Gangnam style. That's the dilemma of having a worldwide hit. Trying to replicate that success will be tough, really tough. I will be surprised if Gentleman do better. I don't find the video hilarious. Maybe I'm just too serious? It may not be a catchy tune now, but time will tell. When everybody's playing it, and you hear it everywhere, your brain cannot resist it anymore and there, it becomes catchy.

Video- Chicken lays Giant Egg

A giant egg was laid by a chicken?

The Los Angeles Times reports that the giant egg weighed nearly half-a-pound. It was three times the size of eggs commonly available at grocery stores.

According to its 87-year-old owner who lives in Guizhou, the hen ignores corn that other chickens are eating. Choosy huh?

The woman reportedly said she thought the rare fowl was dying when it struggled to lay the giant egg for the first time. But in three weeks, her pet laid three more eggs that are extremely large.

The chinese giant egg, however, isn’t the world’s largest.

Currently holding the Guinness World Record title for the largest chicken egg ever laid is Matilda, a chicken from Ipswich, England that laid an egg 3 1/2 inches high and 8.3 inches round.
