Dubai International Airport has opened a new facility at Terminal 3 for families travelling with children.

Built between Gates B7 and B8 on Concourse B’s Zen Garden, the new facility features a children’s area with play equipment, a climbing area and interactive games zone.

The facility has floor sporting structures such as sand-dunes, baby changing rooms, and television screens showing children’s programming.

Dubai Airports operations executive vice-president Chris Garton said: "We recognise that passengers waiting for a flight have valuable time that they would like to put to good use, be it catching up with work, sharing a meal with friends, shopping or spending time with family.

"These new facilities are the first of a series of changes we are making across the terminals at Dubai International to create welcoming spaces for the comfort and convenience of our customers."
