Here's some comments about this passage that I found in Narrative in the Hebrew Bible, by David M. Gunn and Danna Nolan Fewell:
Abram's father had brought the family half-way already (from Ur to Haran).
The text doesn't tell us what Abram said to Sarai, or if he said anything to her, about the command to move or the blessing.
When Abram gets to Canaan, God says "This is your land." Abram then moves on to Egypt.
