DCAA, dans and NATS to Support Launch Event in Dubai.
Global Air Traffic Management (GATM) 2018, the conference and exhibition bringing together the global air traffic management industry, has attracted key support from leading air navigation service providers, further cementing the show as an unmissable event. Dubai Air Navigation Services (dans), Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA) and NATS have all their support for the event along with Dubai Airports when it takes place 5-6 November at Roda Al Bustan, Dubai.
The Middle East has experienced 9% annual growth in air passenger traffic, with the UAE’s airspace movements expected to double over the next five years. This vast growth in air traffic across the region plus the airlines need to constantly streamline expenses, means air traffic management is an issue that urgently needs addressing in order to cut costs and enable airlines to expand efficiently. The conference will present a comprehensive and interactive discussion on Air Traffic Control in the UAE, the GCC and how the region fits in on a global scale.
