UAE first five-star luxury train set to roll out in 2028

The UAE is set to unveil a new chapter in luxury travel with the upcoming Etihad Rail luxury train, a magnificent blend of innovation, culture, and comfort.

Launching in 2028, this “five-star hotel on wheels” will journey from Fujairah’s sparkling coastline to the golden dunes of Liwa Desert, offering passengers a breathtaking experience that celebrates the nation’s beauty and diversity.

Crafted by Italy’s Arsenale Group, the train will feature 15 lavish carriages, including private suites, gourmet dining, a presidential suite, and a majlis-style lounge that reflects Arabian hospitality at its finest.

From sunrise views over Hatta’s mountains to dinner beneath Liwa’s starry skies, every moment promises serenity and splendor.

Beyond luxury, this project symbolizes connection, progress, and unity linking communities across the seven emirates and redefining how people experience the UAE.
