Hi, I found this airport on Google maps. Is this JXB, already under construction? Or is it something military? -- H005 13:57, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

That is not JXB, it is Minhad Airbase. Abc30 01:32, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Subjective comment?

Isn't the following a subjective comment?

"Hotels and shopping malls (include many, very expensive stores)"

It is one of the bullet points under the "Overview" heading in the article. Perhaps the part about the stores being very expensive should be rephrased or removed. -- Dancinginblood 17:31, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Change of name

According to the Dubai World Central website, the name of this airport is now the Al Maktoum International Airport (AMIA) and no longer Dubai World Central International Airport —Preceding unsigned comment added by Unmuktgoel (talk • contribs) 06:51, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Simultaneous runways

What´s the reason why it hasn´t been designed for six simultaneous runways? The flight routes separation (approach, leave)? 84.173.227.20 (talk) 23:13, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
