This Is YOUR Sign To Join The UAE’s Most Empowering Fitness Event!Wissam was headed towards Dubai with his wife and two daughters when the plane landed in Bahrain instead. He and his family then waited to board their Dubai flight following the temporary closure of Dubai Airports yesterday.
After a few hours (which probably felt like a lifetime!) of uncertainty, Wissam and his loved ones were safely back in Dubai. All is well that ends well!
All the feels and more…
“It’s not your own life that scares you; it’s the lives of those you love more than anything in the world,” posted Wissam, thanking God for keeping his family safe. But it was the pilot that certainly won hearts on the flight! “In that moment, what kept us grounded was a voice. Calm, reassuring, composed. Our captain spoke with such grace and control not just flying the plane, but anchoring our hearts.”
A special thanks to the UAE

Wissam thanked his beloved country for always being there, for “feeling like solid ground in uncertain moments”. The UAE has always given him a “sense of protection, of order, of strength even when the world around is shaking.” How moving!
