The suspension was in effect from 10:13 to 10:45 a.m. local time (0613-0645 GMT) before flights were cleared to resume, Dubai Airport said. Dubai airport, the hub for airlines Emirates and flydubai, is the world’s busiest for international travelers. Sightings also temporarily halted arrivals at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey. Gatwick Airport, London’s second busiest airport, was severely disrupted by drone sightings in December. “Stuck for ages at Dubai airport runway unable to taxi as unauthorized drones have entered the airspace here and all takeoffs have been grounded!” Twitter user @anushwij wrote.
