[PRESS RELEASE – Dubai, United Arab Emirates, March 8th, 2026]

As aviation disruptions continue in the Gulf region due to a drone strike near Dubai International Airport, the global cryptocurrency platform 1win has launched a private evacuation operation for its VIP clients in the United Arab Emirates.

“Safety first,” the Owner of 1win stated on X. “When airports in Dubai closed and many were stranded, we organized the evacuation of our VIP clients within a day using private jets to ensure their safe return home without waiting for the situation to improve. We are here to support you in any situation.”

Aviation in the region has faced major interruptions, with Emirates airlines temporarily halting flights to and from Dubai International Airport and advising passengers to avoid traveling until the security situation stabilizes. Several international routes have also seen cancellations following operational risk assessments by airlines.

To help VIP clients who could not depend on commercial flights, 1win coordinated private aviation arrangements with numerous international charter operators. The focus was on providing direct flights from Dubai and Abu Dhabi to destinations across Latin America, Asia, and the CIS region.

Reports indicate that demand for business aviation in the UAE has sharply increased as travelers look for alternatives amid the turmoil with commercial flights. Various aviation sources and international news outlets reported a notable upsurge in private jet charters, along with rising costs for flights from Dubai as the need for alternative travel options grows.

1win’s charter program is set to continue, adjusting aircraft availability based on client requirements.
