. If DWC will be build in 2033, so 8 years or less remains for DXB. It would be very hard to lose very famous airport in aviation. Maybe the creators of WoA can create DXB as a tribute or memory of this legendary airport that will one day close, but it is still time till then. Now I really wish that airport in next 8 years for WoA!
