From Etihad Rail To Road Travel: How SelfDrive Mobility Completes Your UAE Journey

Etihad Rail is making travel between the UAE's emirates more convenient, but reaching your final destination does not always end at the railway station. Whether you are travelling for business, visiting family, planning a weekend getaway or exploring a new emirate, you may still need a car after getting off the train. 
That's where SelfDrive Mobility can make the next part of your journey easier. With car rental, monthly subscriptions and leasing options, SelfDrive Mobility gives Etihad Rail passengers the flexibility to choose a vehicle based on how long they plan to stay and how they want to travel.

Arriving by Train? Continue by Car.

Think of your journey in two parts:
Etihad Rail gets you between emirates.
SelfDrive Mobility gets you where you need to go.
Instead of driving the entire distance between cities, you can take the train and arrange a rental car for your onward travel. This can be particularly useful for passengers arriving at stations in destinations such as Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Fujairah, with additional stations being introduced as the Etihad Rail passenger network expands.

Car Rental for Etihad Rail Passengers

Your transportation needs can be different depending on the purpose and length of your trip.

Daily Car Rental: Travelling for the day?
A daily car rental can give you the freedom to leave the station and visit multiple destinations without depending on taxis or public transport.
It can be useful for:

• Business meetings
• Airport transfers and onward travel
• Short city visits
• Family visits
• Day trips
• Weekend activities

Weekly Car Rental: Staying for several days?
A weekly car rental can provide the convenience of having a car throughout your trip.
Instead of arranging separate rides every time you want to travel, you can have a vehicle available throughout your stay.

Monthly Car Subscription: Planning a longer stay?
For travellers spending several weeks or months in an emirate, a monthly car rentals can provide a more convenient alternative to repeatedly renting a vehicle.
With SelfDrive Mobility, customers can choose from a range of vehicles and subscription periods based on their requirements.

Long-Term Leasing: For longer stays, relocation, work assignments or extended business requirements, leasing car rental can provide access to a vehicle for a longer period.
This makes the combination of Etihad Rail + car subscription or leasing relevant not only for tourists, but also for residents and business travellers.
