Dubai in Brief
D
ubai is the UAE’s most populous (2.26 million) and second largest
emirate in terms of landmass. At 1,588 square miles (4,113 square
kilometers), approximately the size of Montana’s Glacier National Park,
Dubai packs an enormous punch as a tourist destination and economic
power. Propelled by a strong entrepreneurial spirit, Dubai’s economy
has steadily expanded and diversified. Despite the global financial
crisis in 2009 and 2010, Dubai continues to post promising economic
performance numbers. More than 8 million tourists visited Dubai in
2010 and that number is projected to hit 15 million by 2015.
Midway between the Far east and Europe, Dubai’s geographic position
is ideal. The city is a major port with more than 120 shipping lines and
an airport that serves more than 125 airlines and more than 210
destinations. By air, Dubai is situated within three hours of India and six
hours of China, four hours of North Africa, eight hours of Hong Kong,
and seven or eight hours of many of Europe’s major capitals.
