Dubai: Travellers coming through Dubai Airports during Eid Al Fitr were greeted with flowers and a card, the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs reported, saying even with the rush of passengers entry processes were handled efficiently.

“All entry points into the country and the city were very well prepared to deal with the tourist rush during Eid,” Major General Mohammad Ahmad Al Merri, Director-General of the GDRFA, said. “The department has developed procedures so that all processes are as succinct and quick as possible.”

Al Merri visited the GDRFA at Dubai Airport during the first day of Eid Al Fitr. He inspected the new generation smart gates, which are expected to be installed at the airport soon.

“The UAE is a major tourist destination,” Al Merri said. “As such we have developed our services to make sure all travelling procedures are seamless and expedited. The key to providing an efficient service is to work together as a single team and correspond with other departments.”
