Gentlemen, why all the aggro?
I'm a 10+ years EK pilot and have witnessed the large increases in traffic at DXB since I've been here.
You know what? I think you guys do a great job. No, it's not perfect but then nothing in life is. Yes, there is room for improvement but so is the case for any major airport around the world.
I'm thankful that DXB delays startup to avoid waiting too long at the hold. I hate it when Beijing or Paris or whoever lets me start and taxi only to get to the runway and wait for ever whilst their local boys jump the queue and take-off.
And I still smile when I watch the long line of landing lights of aircraft on the ILS as I'm taxiing to the gate following my landing after good, safe controlling, even if not entirely fuel efficient.
Dubai APP and UAE ACC - you have come a long way. Don't forget the good stuff. Go have a beer and chill out
