Dubai doesn't plan for the next quarter. It plans for the next decade.
At Arabian Travel Market, H.E. @IssamKazim, CEO of Dubai Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing, breaks down what's really driving the city's next chapter of growth.
• Demand remains exceptionally strong, even as global travel patterns shift.
• 25% of visitors are now repeat visitors, many of whom go on to call Dubai home.
• From destination to home: that shift is proof that Dubai has become "a far more mature city, not just a destination anymore."
The strategy? Think decades, not days.

Keep your problems smaller than your life. A flat tire is a flat tire. A bad meeting is a bad meeting. A canceled flight is just an extra two hours. These things become catastrophes when you let them. But they stay manageable when you remember the depth of your real life- the people you love, the work you care about, the beautiful years still ahead. Zoom out. Fit your reaction to the size of the problem.
