Refurbishments at Dubai International Airport's (DXB) southern runway are now complete.

An Emirates Airline Boeing777 from Seattle was the first plane to touchdown on the new tarmac just before 6 pm on Thursday.

The runway was closed for 45-days for a complete upgrade to accommodate future traffic growth.

DXB's northern runway was also closed for a couple of days earlier this week for maintenance work.
