Heavy rain affected operations at Dubai International (DXB) on Saturday morning, leading to the diversion of 13 flights to nearby airports.

"Normal operations at Dubai International (DXB) have been affected due to the adverse weather conditions since early hours on Saturday, March 9," Dubai Airports confirmed in a statement.

"Consequently, 13 inbound flights have been rerouted to nearby airports."

Travellers have been advised to check directly with their airline or the official Dubai Airports website for all updates.

Due to congestion and water logging on the roads, passengers are also recommended to use the Dubai Metro, check traffic updates and plan extra time to get to DXB.

The authority said they are working closely "with (their) service partners and airlines to minimise any inconvenience experienced by (their) guests".
