UAE. JCDecaux has launched a premium digital advertising gateway at Dubai International Airport Terminal 3 in partnership with Dubai Airports and Emirates, targeting the airline’s arriving First and Business Class passengers.

The VIP Arrivals Digital Gate is located in the dedicated Emirates Chauffeur Service area and features two large-format 12sq m landscape screens and two double-sided digital columns measuring 4.8sq m each, creating six digital advertising surfaces in an uncluttered setting.

The platform adds a premium advertising touchpoint at Dubai International Airport, giving brands visibility among high-value travellers while enhancing the arrivals experience with high-impact digital content.

The initiative combines the expertise of Emirates, Dubai Airports and JCDecaux’s Middle East subsidiary JCDecaux Dicon to expand digital advertising opportunities for brands targeting premium passengers through an innovative digital infrastructure.
