But isn't growth at DXB very constrained? Isn't growth the priority issue for EK?
Both EK and Flydubai have big growth plans. Meanwhile, a large new airport is planned in Istanbul and the new airport in Doha will hopefully open soon. The point is that if EK is constrained at DXB, other ambitious airlines will take advantage. I believe the new airport planned for Istanbul will have 5-6 runways over various phases and operate 24 hours per day.
