Zayed International Airport

The airport is about 30 km east of central Abu Dhabi, next to the E10 highway. By taxi or ride-hailing app, the drive to the city center usually takes 30 to 40 minutes in normal traffic, and longer at rush hour. Public buses A1 and A2 also run to the city center around the clock, but they take longer.

Yes. Abu Dhabi International Airport was renamed Zayed International Airport on 9 February 2024. The IATA code, AUH, did not change, and it is still the main airport for the city of Abu Dhabi. Many travelers, airlines and booking sites still refer to it simply as Abu Dhabi Airport.

The airport has one passenger terminal, Terminal A. It opened in late 2023, and all airlines had moved there by 14 November 2023, when the older Terminals 1, 2 and 3 closed. Every arriving and departing flight, including those of Etihad Airways, now uses Terminal A.

Etihad Airways has its hub at Zayed International Airport and flies to more than 100 destinations. Air Arabia flies across the Middle East and South Asia, and other airlines include Air India Express, IndiGo, Wizz Air, Pakistan International Airlines, British Airways, Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways and Saudia. All of them use Terminal A.

Licensed Abu Dhabi taxis wait at the official rank directly outside the Terminal A arrivals area; follow the Taxis or Ground Transportation signs after customs. Taxis are metered, and you can pay by cash or card at the end of the trip. The ride to central Abu Dhabi takes about 30 to 40 minutes.

Yes. Seven public bus routes serve the airport, and routes A1 and A2 run around the clock to central Abu Dhabi. The bus is slower than a taxi and suits travelers with light luggage. Etihad Airways also runs coach services from the airport to Al Ain and Downtown Dubai.

Yes. Uber, Careem and Yango all operate at Zayed International Airport. After collecting your bags, follow the app's directions to the designated pickup zone in the parking area opposite Terminal A, which can take 5 to 10 minutes on foot. Only accept rides booked through the official app.

Citizens of many countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom and EU states, receive a visa on arrival at Abu Dhabi airport. Travelers from other countries need to arrange a visa before departure. Your passport should be valid for at least six months from your arrival date, and rules can change, so check before you fly.

The Airport Express bus runs every hour, around the clock, from Zayed International Airport to Ibn Battuta Bus Station in Dubai, taking about 90 minutes. Tickets are sold at a counter in the arrivals hall. Public bus E102, Etihad's coach to Downtown Dubai, taxis, ride-hailing apps and private transfers are other options.

Yas Island is close to the airport, and a taxi usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes to reach the island's hotels. Several Yas Island hotels also run shuttles that stop in the airport parking area. Saadiyat Island is farther away, at about 30 to 35 minutes by car in normal traffic.

Abu Dhabi is on Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4) all year, with no daylight saving time. The currency is the UAE dirham (AED), and cards are widely accepted, including in licensed taxis. Expect hot weather for much of the year, especially from May to September, when even the nights stay warm.

Abu Dhabi Airports Company operates Zayed International Airport. The airport handled about 32.5 million passengers in 2025, up from about 29.5 million in 2024. It has two parallel runways, each 4,205 m long, and a single passenger terminal, Terminal A, which serves all airlines.
