Abu Dhabi unveils hundreds of luxury taxis to boost airport transport links

Abu Dhabi has introduced 800 new luxury taxis into its fleet to enhance access to Zayed International Airport and enhance the city's public transportation system. The Integrated Transport Centre, or Abu Dhabi Mobility, has partnered with Abu Dhabi Airports to implement plans aimed at improving connectivity throughout the capital.

Monday, the ITC announced that 500 of these taxis would be exclusively for airport passengers to manage peak demand, while the remaining 300 have already been deployed to support public transport options, ensuring the network keeps up with a growing population. This initiative is part of a larger strategy to strengthen links with the airport, which welcomed a record-breaking 32.5 million passengers in the past year.

Concurrently, Etihad Airways and Etihad Rail have announced plans to offer shuttle services between Mohamed bin Zayed City Station and the airport. As Abu Dhabi continues to prioritize mobility to and from Zayed International Airport, the Integrated Transport Centre, in collaboration with Abu Dhabi Airports, has bolstered the city's transport network with 800 additional taxis.
