Cheap Flights from Abu Dhabi to Riga — $275

Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) serves as the emirate’s main international gateway and a growing hub for full-service carriers, most notably Etihad Airways, alongside some international and regional airlines. It is typically positioned as a premium, long-haul hub rather than a low-cost base, so fares can be mid-to-high compared with nearby budget-focused airports. The terminal lies about 30–35 km from downtown Abu Dhabi; road transfer times are usually 25–40 minutes by taxi or private car depending on traffic, with fares generally in the range of AED 70–120. Public bus services connect the airport with the city in about 45–60 minutes for a lower fare. Pros include modern facilities, good lounge options and direct long-haul connectivity; cons can be longer transfer times to some neighborhoods and typically higher airport-related costs than smaller regional airports.
