WATCH: Navigating Dubai airport just got easier

Tuesday, 17 September 2019 14:30

It’s now a lot easier for passengers to navigate Dubai International Airport (DXB).

That’s because a free buggy service has been launched to help travellers get to their boarding gates or even explore the airport.

It’s called taxiDXB and 15 carts are currently operating at Terminal 3 B-Gates, but there are plans to expand the initiative.

Though the service is open to all, priority goes to families and elderly people.
