Etihad to increase Easter flights to Abu Dhabi
Etihad Airways will increase its service between London and Abu Dhabi from three to up to four flights a day during April.
Starting on April 5, the flights will be operated by a two-class Boeing 787-9, featuring Etihad Airways’ next-generation Business and Economy cabins, configured with 299 seats – 28 in business and 271 in economy.
The increase in service coincides with Etihad Holidays’ launch of new packages aimed at families looking for a mid-haul Easter holiday.
Etihad’s UK general manager James Harrison said: "We are thrilled to announce more flights to London during April, in response to increased demand in the lead up to and post the Easter holidays.
"This is a busy travel time for families looking to enjoy the extended school holiday. This extra service will allow our guests more choice and flexibility with their travel plans."
