There are two options when buying Palm Monorail tickets, you can either buy a single or a return ticket. Until the system is integrated with the Dubai metro only these options will be available. You do not need to use a Nol card on the palm Monorail, you can just buy your tickets with cash.

Palm Monorail Ticket

The prices for the Palm Monorail tickets are as follows:

Single trip: 15 dirhams

Return trip: 25 dirhams

Tickets purchased are only valid for travel on the same day.

This may seem expensive compared to other forms of public transport in Dubai (you can ride the Dubai Metro all day for 14 dirhams) but it seems that maybe the RTA have aimed the Palm Monorail at present towards the tourist market. When asked about the high ticket prices a senior member of the RTA made reference to the amazing views of Dubai that you can get from the Palm Monorail as well as the fact that ticket prices may be reviewed once it is integrated with the Dubai Metro.
