Dubai just made history—becoming the first city in the Eastern Hemisphere to earn the Certified Autism Destination™ title from IBCCES. This isn’t just a win for Dubai—it’s a breakthrough for global travel accessibility.

From Emirates becoming the world’s first Autism Certified Airline™ to DXB setting the standard as a Certified Autism Center™, Dubai is redefining what it means to travel with confidence. Over 70,000 tourism professionals, 300+ hotels, and 15+ attractions have undergone autism and sensory sensitivity training to ensure every guest feels seen, supported, and safe.

Whether you’re exploring The Green Planet, lounging at certified sensory-friendly beaches, or navigating with custom guides and lanyards, Dubai’s commitment to inclusion is woven into every moment.
“This is more than a certification—it’s a promise to every traveler,” says Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports.
