Wynn Resorts Restarts UAE Luxury Development After Short Delay

Wynn Resorts said on Wednesday it has resumed construction on an integrated ​resort in the United Arab Emirates following ‌a short pause, even as the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran continues to disrupt businesses in ​the Middle East.

The Las Vegas-based casino ​operator said it has taken steps ⁠to ensure the safety and security of ​all employees working on site.

"Wynn employees have ​been offered the opportunity to work from abroad if their home embassy recommends they do so," ​the company said.

Besides severely disrupting shipping through ​the Strait of Hormuz, the conflict has also forced the ‌closure ⁠of airspace in the UAE and disrupted flight operations at two of the world's busiest international hubs - the Dubai International ​Airport and ​Abu Dhabi's ⁠Zayed International Airport.

The casino operator, which won the UAE's first ​commercial gaming operator's license in 2024, ​is ⁠building the luxury resort at Wynn Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah.

Last month, ⁠Wynn ​said it expected the resort ​to open in the first quarter of 2027.
