Abu Dhabi Airport Transfers

Arrive in Abu Dhabi with your onward journey arranged.

Private chauffeur pickups and airport drop-offs for Zayed International Airport, Abu Dhabi hotels, homes, offices and onward Dubai journeys.

Pre-book Your Zayed International Airport Pickup

For an Abu Dhabi airport transfer, send the airport code AUH, flight number and arrival date with the complete destination. The airport is named Zayed International; a booking described only as “Dubai airport” would direct the team to a different location. Empress coordinates the passenger contact, vehicle requirements and meeting instructions before the journey.

On arrival, complete immigration, collect your luggage and pass customs before proceeding to the agreed meeting area. The airport’s official guidance places pre-arranged private transfers at designated meeting areas. Use the instructions in your confirmation rather than assuming a taxi rank, a rideshare pickup zone or an airport concierge desk is your chauffeur meeting point. If your baggage is delayed, notify the coordination team while you remain in the terminal.

AUH to Abu Dhabi Hotels, Residences and Offices

Yas Island and Saadiyat Island

Give the exact hotel, resort entrance or residence. For a family arrival, include strollers, child-seat requests and all suitcases so the vehicle is selected for the whole party.

Abu Dhabi city and Al Maryah Island

For Corniche hotels, city offices or Al Maryah Island business appointments, share the building and entrance details. A hotel transfer and a multi-stop executive itinerary need different quotations.

Khalifa City and Al Shamkha

Send the full address and a contact who can help identify the property. These destinations should be quoted directly rather than treating every AUH booking as an Abu Dhabi city-centre trip.

Abu Dhabi Airport to Dubai and Intercity Journeys

Book an AUH-to-Dubai private transfer for a hotel, home or business destination in Business Bay, Downtown, DIFC, Dubai Marina or another confirmed address. Send the complete drop-off location and any planned stop; a district name alone is not enough for precise routing. For travel in the opposite direction, the pickup time should reflect the road journey and your airline’s check-in guidance.

If you want to keep a chauffeur for appointments after landing, explore our Abu Dhabi chauffeur service. For a direct intercity journey or several stops between the emirates, see Dubai–Abu Dhabi chauffeur transport. We discuss the appropriate service before confirming, rather than adding unplanned stops to an airport-only booking.

A Vehicle That Fits the Journey

Choose from our chauffeur fleet according to your group and luggage. A luxury sedan such as the BMW 7 Series or Mercedes S-Class suits executive travel. A GMC Yukon or Cadillac Escalade offers an SUV alternative. Families and small groups can request a Mercedes V-Class; larger groups can ask about a Sprinter or coach.

Passenger seats alone do not establish luggage capacity. Tell us every large suitcase, cabin bag, stroller, wheelchair or golf bag before confirmation. Child seats and special assistance must be requested in advance; availability and any charge are confirmed with the quotation. The exact model, colour and layout depend on the confirmed booking.

Request a Clear Airport Transfer Quotation

Send your flight number, travel date, airport, arrival or departure time, complete pickup and drop-off addresses, passenger count and luggage list. Add the ages of children needing seats, bulky items and any planned stops. For passengers on different flights, list each flight and contact person so we can discuss separate pickups or a coordinated group movement.

Your written quotation sets out the vehicle category, route, inclusions, applicable VAT, waiting allowance, extras and payment deadline. Review it together with our booking terms. Prices vary by route, date, vehicle, luggage requirements and availability; a fixed public rate for every airport journey would not describe every booking accurately.

Payment options can include a secure payment link, bank transfer, cash and eligible Tabby/Tamara bookings, subject to approval and provider terms. We confirm your service before allocating the chauffeur and sharing the pickup instructions. For an early arrival or late departure, give us the full itinerary when requesting availability.

Airport Transfer Questions

Is Zayed International the same airport as AUH?

Yes. Use AUH and your flight number when requesting a Zayed International Airport transfer in Abu Dhabi.

Where will I meet the chauffeur at AUH?

Your booking confirmation provides the designated meeting instructions and contact details. Complete immigration, baggage collection and customs first, and contact our team if you cannot locate the agreed meeting point.

Can I travel directly from AUH to Dubai?

Yes. Request the full route, exact Dubai address, passenger count and luggage so Empress can confirm availability and an appropriate vehicle.

What if my flight or baggage is delayed?

Share the correct flight number and advise us of changes or baggage delays. The team coordinates around the updated information; waiting allowances, extra charges and vehicle availability follow your confirmed booking terms.
