Recently crowned the world’s leading airport operator at The World Travel Awards, Abu Dhabi’s airport has solidified its position as a global aviation hub. The inauguration of Terminal A in 2023 marked a milestone in its journey towards excellence.

Terminal A Unveiled

Spanning an impressive 742,000 square metres, Terminal A, formerly known as the Midfield Terminal during construction, boasts state-of-the-art facilities capable of accommodating up to 11,000 passengers per hour. With a capacity to handle 79 aircraft simultaneously, Terminal A is poised to welcome a staggering 45 million passengers annually.

Celebratory Atmosphere With Live Performances And Surprises

To commemorate the renaming, Zayed International Airport will host a series of festivities from Friday, February 9, to Sunday, February 11. Travellers can expect enticing discounts and special offers across duty-free outlets, restaurants, shops, and cafes, adding a touch of excitement to their airport experience.

Travellers passing through Abu Dhabi Airport during this period can look forward to live performances by international artists, bespoke giveaways, and a host of other delightful surprises, creating a vibrant and memorable atmosphere for all.
