Getting from Dubai airport to the city center

Fastest options: Dubai Metro Red Line and taxis. Best value: public buses and the metro.

The airport is one of the busiest in the world and offers excellent connectivity via the Dubai Metro Red Line, public buses, taxis, ride-hailing services, and private transfers. Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) is situated 37 km southwest of central Dubai and primarily handles cargo, though some passenger flights operate from there.
