Etihad Takes Warner Bros. World To The Skies

Just look at that aircraft! You’ve got fun and playful characters like the Looney Toons and Tom & Jerry painted on one side and heroes from DC Comics – Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman – on the other. So, why has Etihad done this to a mammoth Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner? That’s because the UAE’s national carrier partnered with Warner Bros. World Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. For the latter, it is the most prominent collaboration to date.

The partnership isn’t limited to a specially painted commercial widebody jet. It runs deeper than that. For instance, travellers aged up to 10 years on long Etihad flights will be recipients of the new Warner Bros. World Kids Pack. The kit has enough stuff to keep the kids entertained throughout the flight. Infants, on the other hand, will get a DC Super Hero-themed blanket. At the same time, juniors will receive goodies like a branded backpack, Super Hero cape, water bottle and activity kit.

Another highlight of this partnership can be found at the Zayed International Airport. A dedicated children’s section with a Warner Bros. World theme will soon be added to the Etihad Lounge. Kids won’t complain there, will they?

AZAL Adds New Dubai Flights; Extends Batumi Services

To offer more convenient travel options for Dubai and Batumi passengers, Azerbaijan Airlines (AZAL) has made a combined announcement. For the city in the UAE, the airline will begin operating flights to an additional airport from next month. And for Batumi, the carrier has decided to extend its services.

On November 8, 11, 13, and 20, 2024, AZAL will launch more flights on the Baku-Dubai-Baku route. These will operate from Heydar Aliyev International Airport in Azerbaijan’s capital to Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai. There are several hotels in the latter’s proximity. That means one won’t waste too much time travelling between the airport and the accommodation.

Over to the Baku-Batumi-Baku route. The airline has announced the extension of services until January 12, 2025. It will operate two weekly flights until then. In addition, AZAL is now accepting bookings for flights on the same route between March 14 and 28, 2025. Both measures have been devised to provide improved travel opportunities.
