  • What airports serve Abu Dhabi from London?

    You can get flights to Abu Dhabi from London from one airport in the city directly, which is London Heathrow Airport, while there are also several airports that offer indirect routes. Heathrow is a great airport to depart from due to how easy it is to access from the city centre and the facilities it has on offer. You can reach the airport via the Piccadilly Line or Heathrow Express with ease. Alternatively, for those not flying directly, you can travel from Stansted Airport in the north of London, which can be reached via the Stansted Express, or Gatwick in the south of the city, which can be accessed by taking the Gatwick Express. These two airports tend to offer better value fares, as budget airlines operate from the airports. At Abu Dhabi, you can reach the city centre by taking the A1 Bus, which takes about 45min and costs around AED 9 ( (£1.80)

The transfer time at this airport tends to be between 2-5h depending on which flight you get. Some of the quicker routes, such as those that have a stopover in Amsterdam, have a transfer time of about 1h 30min, whilst the longer transfer times at airports such as Manama Bahrain International can have stopovers that exceed 10h.
