- Route 103 from Union Bus Station: operating every 40 minutes
- Route 104 from Al Ghubaiba Bus Station: operating every 60 minutes
- Route 106 from Mall of the Emirates Bus Station: operating every 60 minutes
Coach buses are deployed along these routes to ensure a comfortable and safe travel experience for passengers.
In the previous season (2023–2024), RTA’s Global Village bus services carried 573,759 passengers, marking a 22% increase from the 448,716 passengers recorded during the 2022–2023 season.
Additionally, RTA has relaunched its popular tourist abra services within Global Village. Two electric-powered abras have been deployed for the new season, offering guests an alternative and scenic way to explore the park.
The resumption of both the bus and abra services reflects RTA’s commitment to providing seamless and sustainable transportation options for residents and tourists alike.
