Dubai airports to resume 'limited' flights Monday evening

Aviation officials in Dubai announced that "limited" flights of Dubai International Airport would resume on Monday evening, with a small number of flights allowed to operate from the region's two main hubs – Dubai International and Dubai World Central.

Due to the crises in the Middle East, more than 4,000 flights a day have been cancelled across the region, with hundreds of thousands of passengers affected. The Dubai-based airline Emirates says it will accommodate customers with earlier bookings on these flights as a priority, and will contact passengers directly.
