Many international rental car agencies are located in the airport (see above). You will find them just as you exit Customs and enter the Arrivals hall.
A taxi is the simplest way to get from the airport to Dubai destinations and is relatively inexpensive. The Dubai Transport taxi stand is clearly marked as you leave the Arrivals hall.
Expect to pay AED 35 to AED 50 ($9.50–$14/£4.80–£6.90), depending on how far you’re going in the city. The RTA airport bus (Phone: 4/800-9090; www.rta.ae) runs every 30 minutes between the airport and Deira or Bur Dubai. The fare is AED 3 (80¢/40p).
Many international rental car agencies are located in the Abu Dhabi airport . Etihad Airways passengers are entitled to free bus transfer to Dubai. Airport taxis into downtown Abu Dhabi cost AED 65 ($18/£8.95) and AED 250 ($68/£35) to Dubai.
