Etihad introduces charter flights

Our Correspondent

Etihad Airways, the UAE’s national airline with its hub in Abu Dhabi, has expanded its business with the launch of charter and special flight services.

The flights are fully customisable; business and leisure guests can choose from a variety of flight options including a dedicated passenger service, cargo-only flight or a combined passenger and cargo package, the airline said on December 28.

This year, Etihad has flown over 500 charters including passenger, government and humanitarian flights. Over 3.8 million tonnes of cargo has been transported for the government of Abu Dhabi as part of the national aid programme.

Etihad Wellness, the airline’s health and safety programme, ensures that the highest standards of hygiene are maintained on charters flights at every stage of the journey.

As part of the Etihad Wellness programme, global COVID-19 insurance cover is included for all passengers travelling with Etihad.

Etihad also charters flights for sports teams; it had arranged a last-minute flight for Manchester City Football Club in 2019 to help them continue the Asia pre-season tour after they faced a delay on their initial journey.
