Why is Dubai so expensive to fly to?

One reason is the high cost of operating flights to and from Dubai's main airport, Dubai International Airport (DXB), which is one of the busiest airports in the world in terms of international passenger traffic. This high demand for flights to and from DXB can drive up the price of tickets.
