Royal Club – the fractional ownership brand operating on Dubai’s Palm Jumeriah – owned by Pervaiz Naviede Family Trust company Caryatid Properties Ltd has welcomed the news from a report by Matercard, which shows that Dubai is on track to become seventh in the list of the world’s top destination cities this year.

According to MasterCard’s latest Global Destination Cities Index released earlier this week, Dubai is set to draw 9.89 million international overnight visitors in 2013, up 8.2% from last year to claim the seventh rank.

The report suggested the emirate could climb the rankings further thanks to a surge in international tourist traffic surpassing Singapore, New York and Paris by 2017 to become a top-three destination. The emirate could even be catapulted to world’s number one tourist spot if it wins its bid to host the Expo 2020.

Nozmul Islam, CEO of for Dermarr Real Estate Brokers LLC, the representative company based in Dubai on behalf of the Trust, said “This positive announcement is just one of many to come out in recent years emphasising Dubai’s global tourist appeal and underlining the Royal Club’s importance in the region to bring the best that Dubai can offer to the world”.
