Access
Its own airport SHJ, Air Arabia's base, handles 19.5m; 25–40 minutes from Dubai allowing for border-district traffic. The eastern enclaves Khorfakkan and Kalba are two hours through the mountains, shortened by the Khorfakkan tunnel road.

Estimate from press reporting and earlier seasons. The UAE has no national attendance register and Dubai operators do not publish annual numbers, so this is an order of magnitude, not a count. Verified 1 September 2026.
