Morning Ladies,

We are contemplating moving to the pearl from AKG but I am concerned with travelling times to the airport for my husband.
How long is it taking during normal non ramadan traffic?

Many thanks:)

Many thanks for your replies, I knew it can be a nightmare to get off the pearl sometimes, but 20 mins to get to Katara is a bit too much, thinking its better the devil you know ;)

Hi - Depends on when he has to be at work...traffic is heavy getting off The Pearl until about 8:15 am during school times. Worst case, maybe 15-20 minutes to get to Katara red light. It then picks back up in the evenings. They are continually trying to improve this but... Without any traffic, I would say 30 minutes.

Hello, We live in the Pearl from June and my husband normally takes 45 minutes, but in the evening or in the early morning also 30 minutes. But now the Pearl is a ghost town, a lot of expacts are caming back to their countries.
