Unconfirmed reports of no traffic into Dubai ?

Anyone got any info ?

Flightradar 24 shows a few departures, but nothing coming in ?

Did hear a couple of quite loud jet aircraft overflying the downtown area a few hours ago... could not see them though so they must have been quite high up. Normally I don't hear them from inside... not sure if it's connected. Then again I didn't think middle of the day is traditionally very busy, moreso early morning and late night?

Looks good to me on planefinder.

Plenty of traffic going in/out on my side!

The two fast jets were F16's seemed to be orbiting the dry docks started very low and slowly gained height??

Possibly - TAY052 (TNT) (Hong Kong - Liege) Normal cruise altitude to west of Karachi then lower level and into Dubai ?

HHmm, heard them again about 45mins back. Normal then I guess. I've also heard quite a few cargo a/c (looked like a Herc) which stand out because as I mentioned, can't hear normal traffic usually unless right next to the windows...
