Weather Briefing
MVFRFujairah International Airport is currently reporting marginal VFR (MVFR) conditions with clear skies and 8 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west (270°) at 25 knots. Runway 29 is favored with a 23-knot headwind and 9-knot crosswind component. These are strong winds that may exceed crosswind limits for light aircraft.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is 8 km, below VFR minimums in some airspace classifications. Check local requirements before departing VFR. Skies are clear with unlimited ceiling.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 33°C (91°F) with a dewpoint of 13°C, indicating very dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 30 hours. Conditions are expected to remain MVFR throughout the forecast period. Expected weather includes: Blowing Dust. Winds are forecast to reach up to 22 knots during the period. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Blowing Dust between 18:00Z and 00:00Z. There is a 30% probability of MVFR conditions with Blowing Dust between 01:00Z and 18:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
VFR pilots should exercise caution. Consider filing IFR if instrument rated, or postponing the flight if conditions are expected to deteriorate further.

About Fujairah International Airport
Overview
Fujairah International Airport serves the eastern emirate of Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates. Located at coordinates 25.112200, 56.324001, the airport sits at an elevation of 152 feet above mean sea level. As a medium-sized airport, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for the region's transportation and logistics needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport's location in the UAE's eastern coastal region typically experiences hot and arid conditions with minimal precipitation. Pilots should anticipate high temperatures and potential thermal variations, particularly during summer months. The airport's elevation of 152 ft MSL provides relatively stable atmospheric conditions for flight operations.
Notable Features
Fujairah International Airport features a single runway (11R/29L) measuring 10,007 feet long with an asphalt surface. The runway's substantial length accommodates a variety of aircraft types and provides flexibility for different operational requirements. Its east-west orientation allows for strategic approaches considering regional wind patterns.
Approach Considerations
The 10,007-foot runway provides ample landing and takeoff space for most commercial and cargo aircraft. Pilots should be prepared for potential crosswind conditions due to the airport's coastal location. Standard instrument approach procedures are recommended, with careful attention to the runway's 11R/29L heading during navigation and landing.
