The airport is predicted to handle 15 million passengers a year
It is being constructed to accommodate 20 aircraft stands, of which 18 will be exclusively for use by the Airbus A380-800, and the remaining 2 for the Boeing 777.
“Being awarded the contract to secure Dubai International Airport is a significant win for CEM in the Middle East” said Philip Verner, regional sales director EMEA at CEM Systems.
“Dubai International Airport joins some of the world’s most prestigious aviation sites by selecting the CEM AC2000 system to secure, Concourse 3, Terminal 3.”
Work on Concourse 3 began in 2008 and it is expected to open in 2012. It is reported that this is part of a much wider multibillion dollar program to upgrade and extend Dubai International Airport, making it one of the world’s largest airports by 2025.
