It began scheduled international operations within 200 days of opening, with Abu Dhabi as its first international connection. The airport recorded an average last-bag delivery performance of 94% in August.

On Wednesday, it received an Antonov An-124 ‘Ruslan’, one of the world’s largest production cargo aircraft and a Code F wide-body freighter.
