Etihad heads for the Himalayas
ABU DHABI – Etihad Airways will launch a four-flights-a-week service from Abu Dhabi to Nepal’s capital Kathmandu in October.
The flights will provide a link for the 90,000 Nepalese living in the UAE as well as the growing demand from leisure travellers looking to experience Nepal’s culture and the Himalayas.
Kathmandu will join Etihad’s expanding network across the Indian subcontinent which includes Dhaka, Delhi, Kochi, Thiruvananthapuram, Mumbai, Karachi, Islamabad, Peshawar and Lahore.
Etihad will operate a two cabin Airbus A330-200 between Abu Dhabi and Kathmandu configured to carry 262 passengers.
