You are correct, 48 hours free transit visa is sponsored by airlines, use this link https://uaevisas.etihad.com/echannels/web/client/etihad/index.html#/visa/request/518/step1?withException=false&administrativeRegionId=1

If you get a chance, go visit 'Grand Mosque', it is about 20 mins from the airport. Premier Inn is next to the airport, there is internal walkway to the Inn so you don;t even have to go outside the airport. I have used it couple of time and its cheap and best plus has breakfast and dinner for very reasonable price.
If you plan to go out into the city then make sure to have some cash, cabs are easily available and prefer cash, don;t worry they don;t cheat.
