Dubai, UAE – 19 March 2025 – The latest Dubai Duty Free Millennium Millionaire and Finest Surprise draw has created two new dollar millionaires, with an American national and an Emirati each winning the coveted $1 million prize.
Two New Millionaires Crowned
Tanaz C, an American national residing in Houston, Texas, became a dollar millionaire after winning in the Millennium Millionaire Series 493. Her winning ticket number 2912 was purchased on 24 February in Concourse A East at Dubai International Airport.
Tanaz is now the 14th American national to win the prestigious Millennium Millionaire promotion since its inception in 1999. Due to the time difference between Dubai and the United States, she was not available for immediate comment on her life-changing win.
Joining Tanaz in the millionaires’ club is Ali Al Jaberi, a 62-year-old Emirati national from Abu Dhabi. Al Jaberi won in Millennium Millionaire Series 494 with ticket number 3659, which he purchased online on 5 March.
A retired engineer and father of four, Al Jaberi has been consistently participating in Dubai Duty Free’s promotions for the past decade.
