Updated: March 26, 2024

Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoumhas been at the forefront of Dubai’s remarkable economic development
spearheading the successful expansion of aviation,
which now supports 28 per cent of Dubai’s GDP, and more recently, formulating economic, investment and fiscal policies and strategies in
support of the emirate’s overarching vision.

Sheikh Ahmed embarked on his career in the aviation industry in 1985 when Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum was appointed President of the Dubai Department of Civil Aviation
(DCA) – the governing body that oversaw the activities of Dubai International and Dubai Duty Free, among others.
In the same year Emirates airline – Dubai’s international carrier was launched with Sheikh Ahmed as its Chairman.Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum is now the Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline & Group, which includes dnata – the region’s leading travel services and ground handling company, and other aviation related entities.

Under Sheikh Ahmed’s leadership, the DCA underwent anorganisational restructuring in April 2007 resulting in the creation of the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA) as the local regulatory body, and Dubai Airports as the owner and operator of Dubai’s airports – Dubai International and Dubai World Central. Following the restructuring, Sheikh Ahmed became the President of DCAA and Chairman of Dubai Airports.

Founded in1985, Emirates has grown from being a regional airline with just two leased aircraft and three destinations, to an acclaimed international airline with a fleet of some 200 aircraft, including the world’s largest fleet of Boeing 777s and Airbus A380s. Flying to more than 130 destinations across six continents. Emirates is the world’s fastest growing intercontinental carrier . In addition, the airline has reported profits for 25 consecutive years, a rarity in the airline industry. Dubai Duty Free has become one of the biggest single airport retail operations in the world in terms of turnover with revenues of US$1.46 billion in 2011.

In June 2009, with the launch of flydubai, its own budget carrier, Dubai added another first to its long list. With Sheikh Ahmed to guide the fledgling carrier as its Chairman another success story is already in the making. Within three years of its launch flydubai has already emerged as the second largest contributor to traffic at Dubai International and features over 820 flights per week.

The opening of Concourse A, the world’s first purpose-built A380 facility, in early 2013 is part of a $7.8 billion expansion plan designed to boost capacity at Dubai International to 90 million passengers by 2018 to accommodate the anticipated traffic growth driven by the rapid expansion of Emirates airline and flydubai. Dubai World Central (DWC), Dubai’s airport of the future launched on June 27, 2010 was another historical moment for Dubai as the first major step towards establishing Dubai as the world’s most preferred aviation and logistics hub. It followed the spectacular opening of Dubai International’s Terminal 3 on October 14, 2008 – widely acknowledged in the industry as the most successful launch of a terminal of its size.
