Hi All,
with the upcoming COP28 in Dubai, I was wondering what traffic would be like. Will there be lots of motorcades blocking everyone else trying to get around? Will Sheikh Zayeed road become a massive car park? Any other predicted disruption?

It's just not worth going near it to be fair.

I was there for COP28 and I felt like some parts of Dubai were as crazy as the whole emirate was during the Expo. As an added bonus hotels also jacked up their prices to make the most of the opportunity. JW Mariott Marquis which is not even that special was a whopping AED 2500 per night with corporate discount
