A recent poll found that only 25 percent of respondents think the AED100 ticket price to go up the Burj Khalifa is reasonable. Most respondents in the online poll believe the price is too high and 34.6 percent called for the Emaar developer to lower the price immediately. Twenty three percent of respondents said they had planned to visit the Burj Khalifa, but changed their mind because they were not ready to pay AED100.
Seventeen percent said they will still take the tour to the ‘At the Top’ observatory deck on the 124th floor, but think the cost “seemed a bit on the high side” Burj Khalifa was officially opened on January 4th by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashed Al Maktoum, the Ruler of Dubai with a spectacular fireworks, laser, and water show that was watched by thousands of people. Burj Khalifa was formerly known as Burj Dubai.
