Dubai Metro Zones with Map & All Zone Monthly Metro Pass

• Major stations include Al Fahidi, BurJuman, Union, Baniyas Square, and Al Karama (now ADCB).
• This zone experiences high passenger traffic due to tourist attractions and business centers.

Zone 2 (Expanding City Center):

• Encompasses areas like Jumeirah, Al Shindagha, and Business Bay.
• Major stations include Mall of the Emirates, Sharaf DG (Rashidiya), Al Jafaliya, World Trade Center, and Emirates Towers.

Zone 3 (Suburbs and Industrial Areas):

• Extends further out, including areas like Al Quoz, Al Twar, and Nad Al Sheba.

• Primarily accessed by residents and commuting workers.

Zone 4 (Outer Suburbs and Industrial Areas):

Zone 7 (Outside Metro Network):

• Served by other public transportation modes like buses and trams.

Fare Implications:

• Your Metro fare increases with the number of zones you travel through.
• For example, a journey from Al Karama (Zone 1) to Mall of the Emirates (Zone 2) would cost more than a journey within Zone 1 alone.
• Understanding the zones helps you plan your journeys efficiently and budget accordingly.
