UAE Rulers inaugurate Dubai Airshow 2015

Emirates, Air Arabia, Saudia and Oman Air may steal the show.

His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai  and His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, officially open the Dubai Airshow 2015 at Al Maktoum International Airport.

The Dubai Airshow is expected to see 'reasonable orders' this year despite saturated aircraft market in the region, aviation experts say

The five-day event, which is set to take off today, will not be able to replicate the success of its previous edition when it generated $206.1 billion in record sales orders. The biennial show will be a low-key affair due to falling oil prices and unrest in some parts of the region, according to experts.

Analysts say Gulf airlines will still be able to dominate the show, which may see $100 billion less sales orders compared to its 2013 edition.

Huge crowds of people waiting to enter the #Dubaiairshow 2015!
