Free Shuttle bus from Dubai to Abu Dhabi for Wizz Air passengers 

The new service will be provided after an agreement was signed between Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority and Capital Express, an intercity bus service provider.

The RTA will provide parking spaces at Ibn Battuta mall and Capital Express will operate the buses.

It was not made clear when the service will become available.

“This will greatly enhance Dubai-Abu Dhabi transport services, as well as those for travellers departing from Abu Dhabi International Airport,” said Ahmed Bahrozyan, chief executive of the RTA's Public Transport Agency.

Eyad Al Ansari, chief executive of Capital Express, said the new route will help attract more tourists visiting Abu Dhabi.

Launched in 2019, the Abu Dhabi branch of the low-cost airline flies to more than 21 destinations from the UAE capital.

Wizz Air also recently launched low-cost flights to the Maldives, with one-way fares staring at less than Dh400. The Indian Ocean holiday hotspot is traditionally known as a destination for luxury travel and Wizz Air is the first budget airline to operate commercial direct flights from Abu Dhabi to the archipelago.

Emirates and Etihad Airways also offer free bus shuttle services between Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

As of now, Wizz Air offers a free shuttle bus service for passengers traveling between Dubai and Abu Dhabi. This service is available for Wizz Air passengers with valid flight tickets and connects Dubai’s Ibn Battuta Mall with Abu Dhabi International Airport. The shuttle helps passengers reach their departure airport if they fly into or out of Abu Dhabi with Wizz Air.
