The Emirate of Abu Dhabi, as the Capital of the United Arab Emirates is moving from an energy based economy to a broad base that includes industrial, manufacturing, “green” industries, real estate and tourism development. Over USD255 billion is being invested over the next five years.
A continuing strong GDP growth (over 12% in 2006 – excluding oil) ensures Abu Dhabi can achieve its economic development targets and will drive continued strong passenger growth for airlines.
Abu Dhabi Airports Company (ADAC) owns and operates the two commercial airports of the Emirate. The gateway airport is Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) and is home to Etihad Airways, the national airline of the UAE. Al Ain International Airport (AAN) serves our eastern region with an efficient cargo hub facility and is ideal for low cost airline needs, being located just a 60 minute drive to both Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
The large-scale AUH development will transform the airport into a world-class facility and by 2011 a new terminal will raise passenger capacity to 20m. In the meantime the current 7m capacity increases to 12m by mid 2008 and a second all weather runway will be in service.
AUH is ideally located in the UAE just a 25 minute drive to Abu Dhabi city centre and 45 minutes to Dubai.
