The UAE and United Kingdom have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to facilitate transit flights for British nationals heading to the UK in light of the COVID-19 panedemic.
The UAE will allow flights that carry British nationals to transit through UAE airports to the UK, and to give them necessary services.
It was signed on Saturday April 4 by Khalid Belhoul, Undersecretary of the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and by Patrick Moody, UK Ambassador to the UAE.
