Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced the introduction of new flag fall rates for both regular metered taxis and Hala Taxi service at specific locations and times. The flag fall rate will be set at AED 20 at the locations of main events such as exhibitions and international conventions (World Trade Centre, Expo City, and the Global Village). This will be applicable during the major event days.

The flag fall for a standard taxi service will be AED 20 at these locations for the mentioned times.
