Aircraft options and pricing

Abu Dhabi to Dubai by class

At 123 km the aircraft barely reaches cruise altitude, so cabin size buys nothing and turn-around speed buys everything. A CJ3+ or Phenom 300E out of Al Bateen puts you on the ramp at Al Maktoum inside 25 minutes of block time, which is the only reason to fly a sector the road covers in 90 minutes.

Abu Dhabi departures

AZI
Al Bateen Executive

A business-jet-only field 12 km from the Corniche with a 3,202 m runway and no scheduled traffic, so there are no airline slots to work around. Falcon Aviation Services is headquartered here.

Dedicated executive terminal with private CIP lounges and apron-side car access
AUH
Zayed International

Two parallel 4,205 m runways and Etihad's home base. Worth using only when passengers are connecting off a scheduled long-haul flight or the aircraft is an ACJ or BBJ.

Royal Jet VIP terminal and the airport's premium arrivals facility

Dubai arrivals

DWC
Al Maktoum International

Dubai's dedicated private-aviation gateway, 45 km south-west of Downtown. Largest business-aviation apron in the emirate and the quickest turn-times, with DC Aviation Al-Futtaim, ExecuJet Middle East and Jetex on the field.

Jetex VIP terminal, DC Aviation Al-Futtaim FBO and the ExecuJet lounge
DXB
Dubai International

12 km from Downtown, so the road saving is real, but private movements run through the Royal Air Wing side and are slot-controlled and more expensive than DWC.

Royal Suite at DXB and the Jetex VIP lounge
SHJ
Sharjah International

A 4,060 m runway 30 km north-east of Downtown Dubai. Kept in reserve for larger group charters when DWC apron space is gone.

General aviation apron, no dedicated VIP FBO

FAQ

Common questions on this route

How long is the flight from Abu Dhabi to Dubai by private jet?
About 25 minutes block to block. The aircraft levels off briefly and starts down almost immediately.
Is it worth chartering for a 123 km sector?
Only when the road is the problem: a peak-hour E11 run between Abu Dhabi and Dubai can take well over two hours, and the flight removes that variable. Most of our traffic on this corridor is a shuttle leg attached to a longer trip.
What does Abu Dhabi to Dubai cost?
Light jets run $7,500-11,000 one-way. Midsize aircraft for larger groups are $11,000-15,000.
Which Dubai airport should I arrive at?
Al Maktoum (DWC) for speed on the ramp and Dubai International (DXB) when the destination is Downtown or the passenger is connecting to a scheduled flight. DXB costs more and is slot-controlled for general aviation.
Can I use Al Bateen for a Global 7500?
Yes. Runway 13/31 at Al Bateen is 3,202 m, which covers every business jet in production, though a hot mid-day departure at maximum fuel needs a performance check.
