Hi all,
This is the latest information that ARISS-US knows about the upcoming contacts in the UAE. I have been given very little information so once I get updates, I will pass that along. ARISS-RU is coordinating with the schools. The Saturday contact seems to fit it in with Andy's findings.
Here is a snippet of what I have already posted to the AMSAT-BB.

According to the image just published at MBR Space Centre (@MBRSpaceCentre) | Twitter : A Radio call from the ISS to the audeince at the Mohammed bin Rashid Space Centre is on Saturday 28.09.19 between 1400-1530 Emirati time (which I think is 1000-1230 utc) this is down as a Radio call; all others are down as Video (times are given). Registration : https://mbrsc.ae/astronauts/#AstroAbout There's no reference to ham radio in this image, might well be using a different circuit.Would be useful to predict ground tracks at these times. Evidently a lot of space <>ground radio activity by the Emirati astronaut.
