Dubai airport the world's busiest airport for international passengers in 2016

The figure, released this week by its operating authority, represents growth of 7.2 per cent on 2015, when 78 million passed through its doors. Dubai's rise has been astonishing. The airport welcomed just 16 million fliers in 2002, meaning total growth in the last 16 years stands at 423 per cent. While it sees more international traffic than any other airport - with Heathrow and Hong Kong second and third - in terms of total passenger numbers, it remains some way off the pacesetter.
