“So, if you are coming to DXB to collect arriving friends or family, you should use the main arrivals car park or VIP valet service,” it said.

The area used to be for people who come to pick their friends and loved ones at Terminal 3.

Meanwhile, DXB also announced the arrival of a new Bangladeshi airline, which will cater to flights between Dhaka and Dubai. (ES)
