Today, I reviewed the progress of Dubai’s air taxi station, the first of its kind in the world, located near Dubai International Airport. The station is ready and forms part of a wider network including Downtown, Palm Jumeirah, and Dubai Marina, which will be completed by the end of this year.

The first station is expected to serve around 170,000 passengers annually, and I directed that the service be launched for public use this year, meeting the highest international standards.

This project is a key milestone in Dubai’s urban mobility journey, reducing travel time and bringing the city closer. We thank the Roads and Transport Authority team and our local and international partners for delivering this landmark project, aligned with World Public Transport Day on 17 April.

In Dubai, we turn ambition into reality.
