XLine Dubai Marina: operator file

What XLine is

XLine is a zipline run by XDubai, the same brand behind several Dubai adventure venues. XDubai calls it the world's longest urban zipline. The official numbers are 1 km long, 170 m high and a top speed of 80 km/h. You ride lying face down in what the operator calls a "superman" harness, so the view is straight down onto the Dubai Marina towers and the water.

Check-in is at the XLine booth on level 2 of the Dubai Marina Mall car park. The line runs daily from 10:00 to 12:20 and from 14:00 to 17:00, with a departure every 10 minutes. XDubai says these times can change with the season, the weather and public holidays, and that it posts closures on Instagram and Facebook.

Prices, and the promotion that is still on the page

On 15 November 2026 the official page listed:

Under both ticket cards the page still shows a "buy 1 get 1" code for UAE residents, valid from 25 June to 30 September 2025. That offer has ended. Treat it as an old banner, and check the price on the booking screen before you pay. Teenagers on the youth ticket must show ID at check-in; without it, XDubai may ask you to pay the adult difference.

The price on partner platforms is shown on the cards above. The combo with the Palm tandem skydive is the one real way to pay less for both activities, as long as you are sure you pass both sets of limits.

Who can ride

The rules are short and strict: age 12 to 65, at least 130 cm tall, weight between 45 kg and 100 kg. Under 18 needs a parent to sign in person. You must not be pregnant, must not be under the influence of alcohol or medication that affects judgment, and must wear closed shoes and modest clothes. Skirts, dresses and flip-flops are refused, and so are smart glasses with cameras.

The 100 kg ceiling is the number that turns people away. The tandem skydive uses different weight and BMI limits, set by sex. A rider can pass one and fail the other, so check the skydive requirements as well before booking the combo.

What to watch before paying

Every ticket is non-refundable and non-transferable, and gift vouchers are non-refundable too, valid for 6 months. The page gives no rule for what happens to your ticket if wind or weather closes the line. It only says closures are announced on social media. If your dates are tight, book a morning slot so you still have the afternoon session as a fallback, and ask the booking channel how it handles a weather closure.

XDubai publishes no regulator or licence number for the ride. It says only that certified teams test and maintain the lines every day.

XLine or a skydive

XLine takes minutes, and photos and video come with the ticket. A tandem from the Palm Dropzone means 3 to 4 hours on site, an exit from up to 13,000 ft and a much higher price. If you are unsure about the weigh-in or the budget, XLine is the closest substitute on the same stretch of coast. Our zipline page compares it with the other options, and all alternatives are listed side by side.
