You can also use the machine to purchase a ticket to dubai which is incredibly complicated but a staff helped me navigate. The bus left the station 10min early so keep that in mind. There are no seperate sections on the bus for women.
The transport system in the UAE is pleasing. You can easily move around the Emirates with suitcases and children. This station is more convenient because a large mall is adjacent to it. Shopping without leaving the bus stop 😄
Super convenient 24/7 buses to the airport of Abudabi, you need to buy a ticket somewhere at the ticket office and drive comfortably. The schedule should be viewed on the Internet, but every hour and on the way - an hour.
Buses constantly leave from the bus station around the city and to Abu Dhabi. It is always crowded, the buses are comfortable, there is a small waiting room, toilets. The N8 bus runs along the entire Dubai beach. There is a cafe nearby. And there is a huge shopping mall.
The landscape around the station is, of course, quite beautiful, but I will take away 3 stars from this place for the unbearable heat. It's just a total horror. I thought I was going to curl up and die right at the station. + no signs for the bus to the Abu Dhabi bus station - you need to ask employees and ordinary people (the station is under the bridge + you need to cross the road once). But the ticket is cheap enough, I don't think it's cheaper to get from Dubai to Abu Dhabi.
It is convenient, fast, clean, there are a lot of passengers, but there is also enough transport, they run according to schedule, so there is no feeling of congestion. I was on the bus route 8. It's just reaching its destination.
Shuttles arrive and depart at Abu Dhabi Airport, tickets can be purchased online. only then you need to go to the office of a one-story cubicle (by the way, there is a toilet) and get a paper ticket.
also nearby is a mall with a food court (have a snack in front, a field of the road) and a subway, you can get to Dubai itself
There is an electronic scoreboard at the bus stop, but it sometimes does not show accurate information about the arrival of the bus. The buses themselves run slowly and stand at stops for a long time. It is faster to get to the metro if there is a similar route.
Payment for travel by bank transfer using the Nol card . To date, 25 dirhams to Abu Dhabi . There is a live queue for the bus . I was on the E101. When entering and exiting, attach the card to the validator - just like in the subway. A very important point is that Abu Dhabi has its own travel cards! You can also leave Abu Dhabi using the Nol card.
Buy bus tickets to Abu Dhabi at the metro ticket office, they are recorded on Nol cards. The station itself is a pair of open platforms. You can wait in the shopping center nearby
