Driving time to the airport from the pearl
By Shooting_star •
Hi !
Ill be moving soon to Qatar, working at the airport. I do however would like to live at the pearl. Anyone could tell me whats the normal and max driving time at traffic hours more or less would be? Or should i really consider to live closer?
Al Thumama is definitely much calmer than the Pearl, but it is a different area. There is no beach there and no residential towers. It is all villas and some compounds. But to be honest, for the price of a 1bdr in the Pearl you can get a 3bdr in Thumama.
What is a calm area then near the airport ? Al Thumama? Al Wakrah?
Did they tell you the Pearl is quiet? Oh God just spend there few weeks before signing a lease agreement and you will see yourself. All those wealthy kids driving Ferraris and Porches will visit you around 2am and will give you a taste of how calm the area is :)
Yacine, why not I prefer a more calm area?
Living in the Pearl is a very bad decision but that's a different story. You may want to start another thread with that topic.
i already do approx. the same each day
it take around 30 the rush hour will not make big different as you go opposite to the the rush direction so no suffer
You will have to go through the traffic jams at The Pearl-Qatar and Doha Corniche before you can get to HIA. On a busy day, it will probably take you 45mins to an hour or so from TPQ to HIA.
Half hour
