Paul Griffits, CEO of Dubai Airports I really want Dubai Airports to rightfully assume the crown as being the best airport company in the world. Airport companies are not known for delivering excellence in any way, shape or form.

If Dubai Airports achieve that then, certainly.

TAQA believes completely in health safety, security and the environment.
