Etihad boost flights to European hubs

The UAE’s national carrier, Etihad airways, has announced two new routes for travellers this week, connecting Abu Dhabi to Copenhagen and Düsseldorf.

Launching in October this year, the flights will provide business travellers and holiday makers from the UAE to the European hubs with four weekly flights to Copenhagen and three to Düsseldorf using Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircrafts.

“We are thrilled to start flying to Denmark for the first time and to expand our network in Germany to our third city, providing guests with more holiday options and easier access between Abu Dhabi and Europe,” Antonoaldo Neves, CEO, Etihad Airways said.

“Our new flights will take off for the European winter season — the perfect time for guests to escape the cold and enjoy Abu Dhabi’s beautiful beaches, world-class entertainment and rich heritage — and also ideal for travellers choosing to experience the unique allure of Europe in the winter.

“With our network expanding to 66 cities, there are even more must-see destinations to plan your next great adventure with Etihad Airways.”
