Power loss causes closure of Dubai International's two runways

  • United Arab Emirates: Thursday, October 11 - 2012 at 01:33

Dubai Airports has said the closure of both runways at Dubai International yesterday morning resulted in the diversion of 50 flights to a number of airports in the region including Dubai World Central, Al Ain, Doha Abu Dhabi, Dammam, Muscat and Bahrain among others, Gulf News has reported. "The closures were caused by the loss of power to a critical runway backup system required during foggy conditions. Runway operations were restored at 8:30am. Dubai Airports is working with airlines, air traffic and ground services staff to restore operations, clear the backlog and limit customer inconvenience," according to Dubai Airports.
