Car lift Dubai to Abu Dhabi

The 05:45 departure starts in Al Quoz and the pickup points sit across Dubai along the way out. Send your building name or area on WhatsApp and you will be matched to the nearest existing stop, or a new one if you are close to the route.

Be outside and waiting, not still getting ready. Departure is 05:45 and every stop after it follows on from that, so a car held at your point costs the other passengers their arrival time. Your driver will tell you the exact minute for your stop once you are on the run.

The departure is early precisely so the Ghantoot stretch is cleared before it thickens. On a normal morning the drive is 1h 40m to 2h across 130 to 150 km. A bad morning runs longer, and leaving later would only make it worse.

The drops cluster around Mussafah, ICAD, Khalifa City and the city centre offices. If yours sits somewhere else, say so before you book and you will get a straight answer about whether it fits the run rather than a maybe on the first morning.

Call the driver as soon as you know, not the office. If he has already pulled away he will try to agree a point further along the road. On a monthly plan the occasional missed morning is not charged extra.
