How to get from the airport to the city center?

Dubai International Airport is one of the busiest in the world, but it is well organized. After landing, I decided to take the metro, which connects the airport directly to key areas of the city. It’s a quick and inexpensive way to reach the center. The trains are clean, air-conditioned, and have space for luggage. An alternative is taxis, which are available 24/7. Official taxis are cream-colored and equipped with meters; the ride to the center takes about 15-20 minutes, depending on traffic. For added comfort, you can arrange a transfer through your hotel or use services like Uber and Careem. I chose the metro and was pleasantly surprised by the convenience and efficiency of this mode of transport.
