Ramadan blessings
- 23 Mar 2024
Held against the spectacular backdrop of aircraft touching down and taking off, the Iftar fostered a sense of community and togetherness.
Dubai International Airports innovates on a daily basis. It marked a unique first this Ramadan by hosting an Iftar gathering for a number of airport employees from different cultural backgrounds on its action-packed runway (“Dubai International Airports hosts first-ever Iftar on the runway,” March22, Gulf Today website).
The Iftar unfolded with the setting sun, transforming the elegantly arranged table into a welcoming space to connect, share stories, and forge bonds with colleagues from across the business.
It was a great effort to spread hospitality among different cultural backgrounds offering a venue to break their fast and enjoy the rituals of the Holy month of Ramadan.
