Paul Griffiths is the man charged with making sure that by 2030 Dubai is processing 150 million passengers a year, rather than the 40 million it does today. Success will make Dubai far and away the busiest international air hub in the world.

Dubai Airports owns and manages the operation and development of both of Dubai's airports - Dubai International as well as the newly opened Dubai World Central - Al Maktoum International.

Dubai International is the world's fourth busiest airport in terms of international passenger traffic and fourth busiest for cargo traffic, offering connections to over 210 destinations across six continents on more than 130 airlines. The new Al Maktoum airport will be the world's biggest airport.

Griffiths, who was in charge of London Gatwick airport before coming to Dubai has also spent 14 years as an executive director of Richard Branson's Virgin Group, where he was responsible for the commercial development of British long-haul airline Virgin Atlantic, before moving to a similar role at the Virgin Rail Group.
