Etihad Airways To Double Daily Direct Flights To Paris

UAE’s national carrier, Etihad Airways, has announced a new flight schedule for its Abu Dhabi-Paris route. Starting November 1, 2024, an Airbus A380 will fly passengers between the two capitals directly daily. Then, from January 15, 2025, a second daily service will be introduced on the same route. This one will be served on a Boeing 787-9.

Both aircraft will feature a three-class configuration. The A380 will exclusively offer Etihad’s ‘The Residence’ – the only three-room suite on a commercial airliner worldwide. In addition, the double-decker four-engined long-haulier will boast First Apartments, Business Studios and, of course, an Economy section. On the other hand, the 787-9 will offer travellers the option of First, Business and Economy Class cabins.
