The time for dreaming and wishful thinking is over. You need a solid plan and money set aside to realize a project of this scale. No where has been able to duplicate the US theme park model. The basis for success is in the very high calibre staff training and the constant updating of attractions. My guess is that it will never happen in Dubai.

There is new airport planningto be an east west hub with stopver passengers - if there are reasons to stop off, like: malls, sights to see , entertainment etc then more visitors will come, more exhibitors will see Dubia as an attractive venue to hold ther events, more tourists will come back or come back for a second time.

Without a volume of toruists attraction prices are too high, the airport does not make sense, neither does the expansion in malls or any specific attraction.

To make the exisitng investments work - the metro, the malls, the airport expansion more visitors are needed - a Florida style destination, coupled with stopover tourist and expansion of exhibition traffic make sense if the cash does not run out before its complete- then Dubai will need the extra houses and the virtuous spiral of an intregrated strategy will take over from the vicious circle - these projects a pieces in the jigsaw of Dubai'- has to believe in this future there is no other on offer.

Universal Studios and Legoland are exactly what Dubai needs to get the tourists and their money flowing into the emirate. They never should have stopped building them in the first place, and instead should have stopped all these empty office and apartment towers from being constructed. If this comes to fruition, it will greatly help Dubai become a prime global tourist destination, and make it a week-long, not just weekend, stay for many. Get building already!
