How to Get to Ras Al Khaimah?
Ras Al Khaimah is an emirate located in the farthest north – above Ajman, Sharjah and Dubai, 45 minutes away.
There are two airports in Ras al-Khaimah, but none of them sends flights to Dubai. It remains only to decide which transport to choose for Ras al-Khaimah since many airlines fly to Dubai, but not to Ras al-Khaimah.
