ABU DHABI - The share of the aviation and tourism sector in United Arab Emirates’s economy will more than double in the next two decades to $128 billion, an official of the International Air Transport Association said on Tuesday. Currently they contribute $47.4 billion to the UAE’s gross domestic product , accounting for 13% of its GDP, said Mohammad Albakri, regional vice president of Africa & Middle East at an IATA event.
