Multi-lingual male and female drivers with first-class knowledge of Abu Dhabi and UAE’s locations as well as the ability to deal with various world currencies have been well trained and prepared for the new service.

According to The Centre for Regulation of Transport by Hire Cars in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, the new service is in line with the centre’s aspirations of pioneering taxi services, building upon the rapidly-growing status of Abu Dhabi both regionally and internationally as the leading hub for world-class activities in all sectors.

Meanwhile, those using discount cards provided by the UAE Ministry of Social Affairs can benefit from a discount rate of 25 to 50 per cent on all trips using new airport taxi.
