Etihad Airways is expanding its route network in Asia, adding Airbus A380 flights between Abu Dhabi and Singapore starting in February 2025. This decision will increase the number of flights on this popular route and offer new opportunities for passengers. The airline will also increase flight frequencies to Thailand, with three daily flights to Bangkok and 20 weekly flights to Phuket starting from late October 2024.

Abu Dhabi and Singapore are two key hubs in the region, representing a blend of cultural traditions and modern achievements. These cities play a significant role in aviation connectivity between the Middle East and Southeast Asia, as highlighted by Etihad’s new route.

On the new A380 flights, passengers will have access to a wide range of services, including the unique "The Residence" suites, which feature three separate rooms. In economy class, passengers will benefit from enhanced seating with increased legroom, while business class will be equipped with individual studios offering more private travel conditions.

These schedule changes and fleet updates reflect Etihad Airways' commitment to expanding its offerings and enhancing service quality on international routes. Passengers will be able to enjoy the benefits of the new flights and take advantage of additional amenities as they plan their trips across Asia and beyond.
