More flights to Abu Dhabi

ETIHAD AIRWAYS, the national carrier of the United Arab Emirates, is adding two extra weekly services between Dublin and Abu Dhabi from December 13, providing a choice of six non-stop flights each week.

The extra 800 seats in and out of Dublin each week are in response to customer demand and the move is set to take place just six months after the airline’s first flight from Dublin to Abu Dhabi.

The additional capacity will open up a range of short and long-haul connections for Irish air travellers flying via Etihad’s home base.
