Ahead of the Arabian Travel Market 2008 (ATM), set to run from May 6 - 9 May, Abu Dhabi Airports Company (ADAC), has acknowledged that both leisure and business tourism into the UAE capital are becoming key drivers in boosting passenger throughput at its airports.
"As Abu Dhabi looks to create a modern, cultural capital for the Middle East tourism, it is expected to grow in line with such designs. Abu Dhabi International Airport has ability to cater a growing number of tourists and passengers," said Mohammed Al Bulooki, director of Marketing and Communications, ADAC.
The gateway to the UAE; Abu Dhabi International Airport is the first point of reference for visitors and travellers to the Emirate and as such ADAC, the owner-operator of the airport, has stated that it recognises its responsibility as being the face of Abu Dhabi to millions of travellers and tourists per year.
With tourism figures to the UAE capital and the wider Emirate set to reach 2.7m by 2012, ADAC's airport developments can be seen as a series of complementary projects that will enable tourism growth and cater to an increasingly wider range of international travellers into Abu Dhabi.
In line with the growing number of tourists, by 2012 tourists arriving and leaving Abu Dhabi will be treated to a truly world-class airport experience at the new Mid-Field Terminal Complex, a 40m capacity airport which will offer some of the world's best retail and hospitality environments.
"While many parallels have been drawn between the hospitality industry and tourism, it is clear that a modern, aviation hub with best-in class infrastructure situated in the heart of the UAE capital will be essential to tourism growth and as a preferred destination into the UAE," he added.
"In enabling guests to enjoy smooth, hassle-free access to the country when coming via Abu Dhabi Airports, we have an opportunity and duty to enhance the tourists' experience and leave both initial and lasting impressions in the memories of all visitors," said Al Bulooki.
Working closely with the Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority (ADTA) as well as the 37 airlines operating out of Abu Dhabi, ADAC is constantly looking to enhance the passenger experience through its airports. This will continue later this year with the new Terminal 3 which will boost the airport's current passenger capacity from seven to twelve million per year.
"ATM 2008 is a great platform from which ADAC can establish and work closer with the travel, airline, tourism and other related agencies in order to develop, co-operate and enhance every tourist's visit to Abu Dhabi," concluded Al Bulooki. WAM
