About Ras Al Khaimah

RAK City is the largest and most populous city in the Ras Al Khaimah emirate, with a population exceeding 115,000 — ranking it the sixth most populous city in the UAE. The emirate benefits from notable green vegetation, including extensive mangrove areas, which sets it apart visually from much of the Gulf region. It functions as a meaningful centre for international business whilst offering a quieter, less congested alternative to Dubai for leisure.

Ras Al Khaimah International Airport was established in 1976 under Sheikh Saqr bin Mohammad Al Qasimi. From the outset, the facility prioritised air freight connectivity over passenger volume, which has shaped its character as an efficient, uncrowded airport well suited to private aviation.
