What is the best transportation from Dubai Airport Terminal 2 to Abu Dhabi downtown?

Hello, I'm flying in to Dubai Airport Terminal 2 next month and I need information about the best way of transportation from that terminal to Abu Dhabi downtown. Any advice? Thanks Update: I'm flying flydubai, and since it's an economy airlines i don't think they will provide free coach or bus services to abu dhabi.

1. as you leave the airport, in the arrival area, there are many taxi that are going to abu dhabi, the taxi fare is usually 250 AED, exchange rate here is 3.6 $ = 1 AED so its around 70 dollars, dont believe if they will ask you for a hundred dihams more than this rate. hope you have a great stay in abu dhabi...also some airlines offers free bus from dubai airport to abu dhabi, just ask your airline agent as soon as you arrive in dubai airport.
2. A taxi would be your best option at 250 dhs, it takes just over an hour, there are lots of taxis just outside the airport, you can also take a bus but i wouldnt recomend it, it is cheaper but takes alot longer!
3. if you want to take the bus , you will need to go to Al Ghubaiba Bus Station , but the bus for that leaves from terminal 1. So you need to take the airport bus to terminal 1 first. Then get on Bus 402, and then get off at Al Ghubaiba Bus Stn. Then find the Abu Dhabi Bus E102 As far as I can tell this is the only one . You can check timetables and routes on this site http://www.rta.ae/wpsv5/links/publictransportpdf.htm The first bus will take about an hour (because it makes stops), and the AD one will take 2 hours to get there, but this one is an express so it doesn't make stops like the first one. If you can find \ afford a better way go for it , the bus station at Ghubaiba is not a nice place to be, always crowded. This is an outdoor (open air) station, in the middle of town , so there wont be air conditioning like in the airport.
