Travelers flying through Dubai will soon have to pay a new airport fee for departures out of the fast-growing Middle East hub.

The new 35-dirham (about US $9.50) departure tax is already being applied for travel from June 30, 2016 onward.

The fee will be charged to passengers departing any of Dubai’s airports on international flights.  Children under 2, cabin crew and passengers who don’t change aircraft in Dubai are exempted.
