Airport transfers
Dubai airport transfers
Dubai has transfer routes from its own airport and from the airports of its neighbours. Dubai International sits in the north-east of the city near Deira and the Creek; Sharjah International is across the boundary in the next emirate, further north-east; Abu Dhabi International is far down the coast to the south-west. Hotels run from the Creek through Downtown and Jumeirah to the Marina and the Palm, which is why a single airport can be close to some and far from others. The routes here also reach Ras Al Khaimah, further up the coast.

Getting around Dubai
Which airport you land at decides most of the drive. From Dubai International the road to Downtown or the Marina follows the main highway through the city; from Sharjah it joins the same roads from the north; from Abu Dhabi it is a motorway run along the coast before the city appears. The return legs, from Dubai to Dubai International, are listed as well. Dubai is built for cars, distances between districts are large, and summer heat makes a wait at the kerb unwelcome. A private transfer fits most arrivals: families heading to the beach hotels, business travellers going to the financial district, stopover passengers with a night to spend, and groups moving on to Ras Al Khaimah. Dubai International also offers a Meet and Greet service that can be booked for your flight date from this page. Start with the route that begins at your airport; your flight number, pickup time and passenger count bring up the vehicles for your group with a journey estimate for each. Hotels in Dubai and United Arab Emirates eSIM plans are on the same page, so the whole arrival can be arranged in the same place.
