The airport has been designed with an eye on the future: a future where narrow-bodied aircraft will play a pivotal role in air travel. Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports, underscored that at the Arabian Travel Market on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>Parking for up to 400 aircraft, 5 runways and the capacity to handle 260 million passengers annually: that\u2019s Al Maktoum International. The facilities at the new airport are enhanced to cope with the changing industry, Griffiths said during a talk on \u201cNavigating the future of air travel, moderated by Mark Frary, co-founder of Travel Perspective.<\/p>\n<div class=\"AV63ef561cea214c48560d40d6\">\n<div id=\"aniBox\">\n<div id=\"aniplayer_AV63ef561cea214c48560d40d6-1715248598685\">\n<div id=\"aniplayer_AV63ef561cea214c48560d40d6-1715248598685gui\">\n<div id=\"av-caption\"><span id=\"av-label\">-ADVERTISEMENT-<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"av-container\" class=\" av-desktop hide-controls\">\n<div id=\"av-inner\">\n<div id=\"slot\">\n<div id=\"imgpreloader\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"videoslot\" class=\"loaded\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"gui\">\n<div id=\"buttons\">\n<div id=\"left\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"right\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"aniview-credit\">Ads by<\/div>\n<div id=\"ad-icon\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"anibid\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"PA_mid-article\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"cacher gn-meter\">\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>Like any other technology, aviation technology has been changing rapidly. Any futureproof solution should factor in the pace at which technology is developing. That\u2019s the nub of Griffith\u2019s argument.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>To illustrate the point, he said, \u201cIf you extrapolate the growth from 17 years ago with 30 million [passengers annually], we\u2019re now 90 million. And if you go forward another 15 to 20 years, we will probably be at 260 million. This airport [Al Maktoum International] has been designed for it. Aircraft technology has changed so much, and it\u2019s about to change if you look at the average size of aircraft at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"story-block\">\n<p>The Airbus A380 superjumbo was once the pride of the fleet.
