^^ Saudi Arabia has to get into anything.

with a friend like najd & alhijaz, who needs an enemy?
btw, u should have deleted the stupid persian gulf off the map, it's the arabian gulf, FOREVER!

What is the point of this thread?

I miss the old map

Saudi announced the opening of the former border to the UAE; still under Saudi sovereignty apparently. Will save a good 1-2 hours of driving distance though.

So the old border road re-opens?? But expats will still need Saudi transit visa to go through, right? (Sorry, I can't read arabic...)

Could we please have a dedicated transit corridor, without the requirement for transit visa, so that we can go to the emirates when we feel like it :)

Yes, its just this one source. There is something fishy going on. I really wish Saudi will allow a transportation corridor to pass through it to UAE instead of stopping at the Saudi Border.

There are currently no scheduled busses to and from UAE to Qatar. However, if there was, it would be somewhere in the area of 8-9 hours including border stop in UAE/KSA/QATAR.
