Getting from Dubai airport to the city center

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

Dubai is served by Dubai International Airport (DXB), located approximately 5 km east of the city center, making airport transfers to city center destinations quick and convenient. 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. Transport options from DWC are more limited, with taxis and buses being the main choices. Journey times and costs vary depending on traffic conditions and your final destination within the city.
