Al Ain International Airport has been officially renamed Tahnoun International Airport, following a directive from UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The new name takes effect today.
The renaming honours the late Sheikh Tahnoun bin Mohammed Al Nahyan, recognising his decades of service to the UAE.
The President’s office said the decision reflects values of loyalty and gratitude toward the founding generation, whose contributions shaped the country across successive stages of development.
