Dubai to Dubai International

Dubai International is just 12 km east of Downtown Dubai and the DIFC, connected by Sheikh Zayed Road and the D89. The drive takes 15–25 minutes. The Dubai Metro Red Line reaches Terminal 1 and 3 in 20 minutes from Business Bay, but does not serve Terminal 2 and has limited luggage space — and the walk from the Metro platform to check-in is 10 minutes through the concourse.
