With daily departures from London Heathrow, Manchester and Dublin, Etihad Airways believe your getaway starts from them moment you leave home, offering an elevated experience for passengers both on the ground and in the air. With flights to over 85 destinations worldwide, the airline boasts an accolade of prestigious awards, not to mention an apt reputation for exceptional service and unparalleled in-flight features as we delve into the reasons why you should fly with Etihad Airways on your next journey.
Choose your cabin with more choice as standard in Economy, upgrade to Business Class for a fully-flat bed or fly in style in your own private suite in First Class – the choice is yours.
Even in Economy, you can expect a truly personalised experience, with three separate seating options offering something to suit every preference. Enjoy all of the airline's usual perks with Economy Standard, including a minimum of 23kg baggage allowance, complimentary dining and a selection of drinks. If you're looking for more space to spread out, opt for Extra legroom seats and guarantee a generous 36 inches of legroom designed to make your journey more comfortable. For those who prefer a little peace and quiet in the air, Etihad Airways have recently introduced Economy Neighbour-Free, which allows you to bid for up to three neighbouring seats which will remain empty throughout your journey, allowing for a more private in-flight experience.
For travellers looking for a step up from Economy, extra legroom seats offer more space and is the ideal choice for those seeking additional comfort without the price tag of Business or First Class. And for those looking to indulge, Business Class offers plush lounge access and the opportunity to sleep in comfort once you board with fully flat beds, mood lighting and an in-seat massage function. You will also have the option to Dine Anytime or head to The Lobby, a hotel-inspired meeting place in the sky exclusively for Business Class passengers and above.
Surpassing luxury air travel as you know it, Etihad Airway's First Class offering boasts an array of enhanced features fit for royalty. The sumptuous A380 cabins have been extensively upgraded to offer The First Apartment, allowing guests to unwind on their private leather armchair or enjoy sweet dreams on a separate fully flat bed. Get comfy with the complimentary lounge-wear and perfect your look at your private vanity unit with lit mirror. You can also make use of an exclusive amenity kit and refresh before you land at the on-board shower.
