FAQ
Ask us
anything
How often do you run sailings to Dubai?
Our Europe–Dubai services operate regularly throughout the year, with increased demand in autumn and winter as owners position their yachts for the Gulf cruising season. Availability varies by vessel type and schedule, so our team will advise on the next suitable sailing.
Which Northern European and Mediterranean ports can I load from?
We commonly load from Southampton, Antwerp, Rotterdam, Genoa, and Palma. Additional ports may be considered depending on the vessel schedule and operational requirements.
Where do shipments discharge in Dubai?
All arrivals are handled through Dubai’s Jebel Ali Port, the region’s premier deep-water facility for yacht handling and logistics.
How long does shipping to Dubai take?
Transit times vary depending on the vessel type (liner or charter) and route taken. As a guide, shipments typically take 2–4 weeks from Europe to Dubai, with exact timings confirmed on booking.
Do you help with UAE customs and documentation?
Yes. We assist with all required paperwork, including import procedures, arrival documentation, and any temporary admission details, ensuring a smooth handover on arrival.
Can you move equipment, tenders, or containers too?
Absolutely. We can ship tenders, ribs, containers, and accompanying equipment alongside your yacht, subject to available space and operational approvals.
When is the best time to book a sailing to Dubai?
For the best choice of dates and competitive rates, we recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance, particularly ahead of the winter season when demand for Dubai increases.
