The Etihad Rail train covers Abu Dhabi to Fujairah in about 1 hour 45 minutes on a fixed timetable, avoiding the variable traffic of the mountain road crossing. Driving or coach travel usually takes about 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours 30 minutes depending on traffic and the exact districts at each end. There are no regular direct commercial flights between Abu Dhabi and Fujairah, and routing by air via another airport is not useful for this domestic trip. The train also offers lower emissions than private car travel on the same corridor.
