The new Big Ticket winner holds the lucky numbers 085303, which were drawn at the Abu Dhabi International airport at 10am today.
The Big Ticket, along with other similar promotions like the Dubai Duty Free Millionaire, offers residents and visitors in the UAE the opportunity to fulfil their dreams.
Just a few days ago, an Australian tourist won $1 million (Dh3.6 million) at the Dubai Duty Free Millennium Millionaire Promotion. The win was unexpected, as the visitor had purchased the ticket out of the blue, while on a stopover in Dubai.
