UAE: New bus service from Ras Al Khaimah to Global Village starting November 28

The Ras Al Khaimah Transport Authority (RAKTA) has inaugurated a new direct bus route connecting Ras Al Khaimah with Dubai’s renowned Global Village entertainment destination. This strategic transportation initiative commenced operations on November 28, 2025, specifically designed to serve weekend visitors seeking convenient access to one of the region’s premier cultural and entertainment attractions.

The service operates exclusively during weekend periods, running on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays with two scheduled round trips daily. Departures from Ras Al Khaimah’s central bus station are scheduled for 3:00 PM and 5:00 PM, ensuring optimal timing for evening entertainment seekers. Return journeys from Global Village are available at 10:00 PM and midnight, accommodating visitors who wish to experience the full range of evening attractions and performances.

With an affordable fare structure set at 30 AED per journey, the service eliminates transportation barriers for residents of the northern emirate and surrounding regions. This connectivity solution provides a practical alternative to private vehicle usage, addressing traffic congestion concerns while enhancing accessibility to Dubai’s multicultural entertainment hub.

The transportation authority encourages potential passengers to contact their customer service hotline at 8001700 for additional information regarding schedules, boarding locations, or other service particulars. This infrastructure development reflects ongoing efforts to improve inter-emirate connectivity and promote sustainable transportation options across the United Arab Emirates.
