The national carrier of the United Arab Emirates, a class of service with a butler and a chef and a nanny on long-haul flights – today we tell you all the secrets of Etihad Airways, one of the most advanced airlines in the world.
What you need to know about Etihad Airways
Etihad Airways is the UAE’s flagship airline, carrying more than 17 million passengers annually. Every day from Domodedovo planes with sand and gold ornaments on the tail fly to Abu Dhabi, and from there to fifty cities around the world.
Abu Dhabi is the main hub of Etihad Airways, from which you can fly to anywhere in the world in truly royal comfort. And at Abu Dhabi Airport you can spend the night between flights, dine in fine restaurants, go for a massage and relax in comfortable waiting rooms.
The average age of aircraft at Etihad Airways is 5 years. By aviation standards, these are very safe ships, so even aerophobes have nothing to fear.
We fly comfortably in any class of service
Economy class at Etihad is reminiscent of business classes on other airlines: wide soft seats with pillows and blankets, a media system, an amenity kit with everything you need for traveling any distance, as well as high-quality cuisine, including vegetarian.
The main feature of Etihad’s premium offers is the Residence class of service, which has no analogues in the world of air travel. Here you will find a three-room suite with a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom, a personal butler and chef, dining tables and carpets made to an exclusive design, a 32-inch screen for entertainment and even a full-fledged wardrobe. Everything you need for a premium flight to anywhere in the world.
First Class also features a personal chef who serves you a personalized menu and the finest wines from around the world. Noise-cancelling headphones, a spacious sleeping area and stylish pajamas will allow you to sleep in coziness and comfort. There are mobile communications and Wi-Fi in many directions.
Business class is as comfortable as first class: here you can spend time watching movies, sitting comfortably under a soft blanket. When you get hungry, the catering manager will offer you a variety of delicious dishes from the huge menu.
Keeping children on board
The dream of all parents has come true – nannies take care of their children during long-haul flights. All nannies undergo special training at Norland College: they know everything about games, entertainment and the safety of little passengers. If necessary, the nanny will help parents with advice, feed and put particularly restless kids to bed. Isn’t this happiness?
Meet you at Abu Dhabi airport
Meeting at an unfamiliar airport is a necessity, not a luxury: a specially trained person from the airline will help with quickly passing through customs control, retrieving baggage and moving around the airport. Any of the 4 meeting packages can be booked in advance here.
Cool loyalty program
Like many modern airlines, Etihad has developed a frequent flyer rewards program: miles on one of three cards, standard, silver and gold, can be earned on all flights of Etihad Airways, Air Serbia, Air Seychelles and Etihad Regional. You can redeem miles on flights with Etihad Airways or purchases from the airline’s rewards catalog.
