TL;DR
Airport pickup times vary by tour operator, with departures reported 5–6 hours before a flight. Some hotels also run paid local shuttles, such as a AED 50 round trip to Fujairah Mall.
A hotel group shuttle to Fujairah Mall may run on Mondays and Thursdays for AED 50 per person return. It allows about three hours at the mall and requires a group of eight passengers.
Tour-operator airport transfers can collect guests very early, around six hours before departure, so do not rely on having time for a late breakfast or lunch at the hotel.
With some tour operators, the hotel airport transfer may be scheduled about five hours before departure. Switching to the hotel transfer instead of the included operator transfer can sometimes be possible, but it may become much more expensive close to departure.
