United Arab Emirates airport exit guides
Dubai and Abu Dhabi airports are squeaky-clean and basically scam-free. The risk is overpaying for convenience — limos, premium taxis, and resort transfers when the metro or Careem does the job for a tenth of the price.
Common exit risks
- • Limo counter quoting AED 200+ for a AED 60 metered ride
- • Resort 'meet and greet' fees buried in fine print
Cash & card advice
- • Cream RTA taxis run a meter and accept card. Avoid the 'limo' counter inside arrivals.
Ride-hailing status
- • Careem and Uber both work. Pickup from designated zones outside arrivals.
