Dubai may spend 'billions' on airport expansion

Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports, has said the government-owned airfield operator plans to seek approval for expansion plans costing 'billions of dirham', Bloomberg has reported.

With aviation generating as much as 25% of the emirate's economy, Dubai plans to press ahead with expanding its current airport and building a new one.

'Dubai's vision, attitude towards airport infrastructure is that if you constrain, the growth will go elsewhere,' he told the news service. 'So we are not going to constrain that growth.'
