It will be built in Jebel Ali port. and the first runway will be finished this year. I am wondering when it will be opened. |

Is that what they'll call it? I figured it's called Jebel Ali International. I don't think it's on schedule. |

| It appears to be Dubai World Central International Airport. Who knows if it will be renamed later. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubai_World_Central_International_Airport |

| I always found the term "Dubai World" odd. Sort of the like the "British American School In Sharjah" (or something) I saw on a bus. |

| It was Jebel Ali International Airport. Got renamed to Dubai World Central International Airport I think in 2005. Airport code is still JXB. First phase due to open 2008 but a delay wouldn't be a surprise. |
