Me? I've occasionally flown to AUH rather than DXB to save money: but I just can't see putting myself to signficant inconvenience (and expense) just to gain a modest amount of extra comfort on the short time aboard an aircraft.
I still wouldn’t do it myself, but when travelling at 140 km/h more or less the entire way on E11, it should take around 45-50 mins to the marina. From DXB, around 30-40 mins traffic depending.
