Quick Summary

Shared — up to 4 passengers, cheapest, ~15-minute pickup window, best for most commuters
Private — vehicle just for you, exact timing, significantly higher cost

Shared Monthly

Our standard Dubai–Al Ain monthly plan. Four riders on broadly the same route, door-to-door pickup, direct trip, drops in Al Ain in sequence.

Shared Works Best For

UAEU faculty and staff
Tawam Hospital workers
Government workers in Al Ain ministries
Students returning home each weekend
Anyone whose timing has 15 minutes of flex

Trade-offs

Pickup window of ~15 minutes (driver has other stops)
Drop sequence depends on who’s going where
You share with up to 3 other riders

Private Monthly

Just you (and family, if you add them). Exact pickup minute, direct route, exact drop. Choose sedan or SUV.

Private Works Best For

Executives with early-morning Al Ain meetings
Families with children and bags
Riders with unusual timing (3:30 AM, 10 PM returns)
Anyone needing to take private calls on the trip
Elderly or medical passengers needing door-to-car assistance

Trade-offs

Significantly higher monthly cost
Usually overkill for routine daily commutes

Decide In 2 Minutes

Is your timing fixed to the minute, or do you have a 15-minute window? Fixed → private. Window → shared.
Do you need total privacy for calls or sensitive conversations? Yes → private. No → shared.
Is monthly cost a hard constraint? Yes → shared. Flex budget → private is worth it.

Can You Switch?

Yes. Switching between shared and private takes 24 hours. Many riders use shared most months and private only during critical weeks (quarterly close, exam season, family visits).
