Read guide →Frequently asked questions
Are the prices in these guides your prices?
No. The cost guides quote general UAE market ranges gathered from what operators across the market charge, clearly labelled as ranges — they exist so you can judge quotes fairly. Your own fare is always quoted exactly for your route and schedule before you book, and that confirmed figure is the price you pay.
Which guide should I read first?
If you are new to the idea, start with what is a car lift — it explains the shared, private and monthly models in plain terms. If you already know you need one, the car lift prices guide and the booking guide will take you from research to a confirmed seat fastest.
Do the guides cover Abu Dhabi and Sharjah travel too?
Yes. The travel guide compares bus, taxi and car lift for the Dubai to Abu Dhabi corridor in detail, the airport guide covers Zayed International as well as DXB, and the price guides include Sharjah to Dubai monthly ranges — the three cities form one commuting system and the guides treat them that way.
