Etihad Airways

Been following the situation with Etihad and the Middle East disruptions and it’s turning into a frustrating mess. From what I’m seeing, Etihad has suspended a number of flights to and from Abu Dhabi, but some passengers are still struggling to get clear refund options. Instead,...

Had a Kuala Lumpur to Amsterdam trip booked with Etihad via Abu Dhabi, but the flight got cancelled with no clear timeline for when things would restart. After spending hours searching for alternatives, we ended up finding a route with Turkmenistan Airlines. The itinerary was...

We’re flying Dublin to Krabi on March 15 with Etihad through Abu Dhabi. With everything going on, we’re honestly pretty nervous about transiting there and also worried the flight might get cancelled. I found another option with Turkmenistan Airlines via Ashgabat that actually...

Planning LHR to SIN in April. Doing economy out, business back. Option 1: Qatar with Qsuites. About £2,100 total. Would earn Avios and it helps toward Qatar Silver, which actually matters to me. Option 2: Etihad A380 business. About £1,500 total. Way cheaper, but miles don’t...

Hi everyone, I’m new here and hope this is the right place to share this. I’m mainly posting to see whether others have had similar experiences. I booked a return flight with Etihad from Zurich to Auckland back in April, routing via Abu Dhabi and Sydney. In August, I received an...

This is a tough spot but also an amazing problem to have. Two saver First seats already upgraded to the Residence is huge. AUH to SIN is one of those routes where Etihad sometimes releases a third saver, but it is very unpredictable. I would not count on it opening, especially...

Posting this as a PSA because this one is pretty brutal. Found a partner award for 6,000 miles plus about $39 in taxes. Checkout screen showed exactly that. After hitting pay, Etihad somehow converted the cash portion into miles at an awful rate and charged me 10,299 miles and...

My parents booked Etihad tickets back in March 2025 for a May 24, 2025 departure. They couldn’t travel because their Hajj visa didn’t come through, so the flight got rebooked to Dec 18 instead. Now it looks like they’ll finally get the visa and plan to travel May 19, 2026, which...

We do a long-haul trip to Thailand every year. Used to always fly Qatar with zero issues, but the timings worked better with Etihad the last two years… and honestly every single flight has had something wrong. Across 8 flights, someone in our group always had a busted screen. On...

Supposed to fly Manila–Manchester today but the flight was delayed almost 8 hours, which made us miss our connection. Got rebooked, but now the total delay is about 12 hours. Etihad told me to just fill out a form after the flight. Anyone know if compensation applies here?

Booked a trip to Bangkok with a long Abu Dhabi layover just to use the stopover offer they plaster all over the booking flow. Showed it to me the whole way through checkout. But when I went to book the hotel, suddenly I “don’t qualify” under 24 hours and blackout date. None of...

Ethiopian Airlines and Etihad have just launched a strategic codeshare—connecting Abu Dhabi and Addis Ababa from July and October, unlocking travel across Africa, Asia, Australia, and the Middle East all on one ticket. It’s a big boost for seamless multi-continent trips! Have...
