Abu Dhabi Airports is continuing to cement its position as a key enabler of economic growth and global connectivity, reporting double-digit passenger traffic growth for a 17th consecutive quarter as well as strong flight movement and cargo growth in the first half of 2025. Between 1 January to 30 June 2025, Abu Dhabi Airports welcomed more than 15.8 million passengers, a significant 13.1 per cent increase over figures from the first half of 2024. Zayed International Airport (AUH) played a pivotal role in the increase, with 15.5 million passengers walking through its gates until the end of June – up 13.2 per cent year-on-year. This rise in passenger traffic was also supported by 133,533 total flights across the five airports in the first half of 2025, representing a 9.2 per cent rise from the same period last year. AUH registered 93,858 aircraft movements, 11.4 per cent over H1 2024 when it recorded 84,286 flights. Expanding its global footprint remains central to Abu Dhabi Airports’ growth strategy. In the first half of the year, the network added 16 new destinations and welcomed new airline partners. Notable additions include China Eastern Airlines’ four-times-weekly Shanghai service (with daily service commencing in September), Air Seychelles’ six weekly flights, and Fly Cham’s service to Damascus. IndiGo also strengthened its presence at AUH with new routes to Madurai, Bhubaneswar, and Vishakhapatnam, further cementing AUH as the airline’s most connected hub in the UAE. Elena Sorlini, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer at Abu Dhabi Airports, said: “The first six months of this year have posed some operational challenges, yet our expectational mid-year results demonstrate the resilience of our network and the collaborative partnerships that underpin our growth. Consistently delivering positive growth for the past 17 quarters is testament to the dedication and collective effort of the entire Abu Dhabi Airports team. It reflects our operational agility and commitment to delivering an exceptional aviation experience and attracting international investors. As Abu Dhabi’s tourism and trade prospects rapidly advance, our airports are well positioned to support and scale that growth.” Abu Dhabi Airports also demonstrated significant growth in cargo operations highlighting the emirate's growing significance in global trade. In the first six months of 2025, it handled a total of 344,795 tonnes of cargo year-to-date, bolstered by strategic partnerships and ongoing infrastructure enhancements. These include a major joint venture agreement signed with JD Property, the infrastructure arm of China’s e-commerce giant JD.com. The agreement will see the development of a state-of-the-art 70,000sqm advanced-tech facility that aims to meet the growing east-west demand for e-commerce and specialised cargo logistics throughout the GCC and broader MENA region. The first half of 2025 was also marked by several strategic milestones across Abu Dhabi Airports’ network. The completion of rehabilitation works at Sir Bani Yas Airport reflects the commitment to strengthening the UAE’s aviation infrastructure and supporting Al Dhafra Region’s eco-tourism ambitions. AUH was awarded the prestigious 3 Pearl Estidama rating for construction and was also recognised as the Best Airport at Arrivals Globally for the third consecutive year at the ACI ASQ Awards, further reinforcing its role as a world-class gateway to Abu Dhabi. At Al Bateen Executive Airport, Abu Dhabi Airports’ collaboration with Bombardier progressed with the establishment of a dedicated service facility, advancing Abu Dhabi's maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) capabilities to position the emirate as a centre of excellence for aviation services.

Engine Failures, Airspace Chaos: Why Wizz Air is Abandoning Abu Dhabi
After four turbulent years in the Gulf, Wizz Air has announced it will cease all operations under its Abu Dhabi-based subsidiary by September 1, 2025—a dramatic retreat driven by a perfect storm of geopolitical instability, engine performance issues in extreme heat, and regulatory bottlenecks. The move marks the end of Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, launched in late 2020 as a bold joint venture with UAE’s ADQ to bring the low-cost model to the Middle East. But soaring summer temperatures, disrupted air corridors due to regional conflicts, and a labyrinth of permissions and market access issues have grounded the airline’s expansion hopes. From High Hopes to Hot Headaches The airline entered the market with ambitions to grow from a two-plane operation to a 100-aircraft Gulf hub within 15 years. However, persistent technical limitations in the desert climate—particularly with the A321neo engines under high-heat stress—meant frequent maintenance, reduced availability, and eroded efficiency. These constraints undermined the ultra-lean business model Wizz Air depends on. At the same time, climate-driven operational issues were compounded by increasing geopolitical turmoil. From late 2024 through mid-2025, escalating regional conflicts led to repeated airspace closures, particularly around Qatar and Bahrain, making route planning unstable and undermining passenger confidence. Regulatory Walls and Market Friction Despite entering with optimism for open skies and bilateral cooperation, Wizz Air found its growth blocked by tight regulations, limited route approvals, and complex licensing hurdles. Competition from state-backed carriers and price wars in an already saturated Gulf market further reduced margins and left little room for differentiation. With mounting pressures, the airline is now reallocating assets and staff to its European hubs in Hungary, Poland, Romania, Austria, Italy, and the UK. This redeployment will fuel new routes and frequencies across stable, high-demand corridors in Europe—markets that offer more predictable regulation and weather conditions. Wizz Air has made clear this is not an end to international ambitions but a pivot to long-haul growth from Europe using its upcoming A321XLR fleet, capable of more efficient long-distance routes to Asia and Africa.
