Etihad Airways will increase in capacity between Abu Dhabi and Cairo with the introduction of a fourth daily scheduled flight, effective March 27, 2016, providing business travellers with greater choice of flights to head to the capital and largest city of Egypt.

“Etihad Airways is focused on offering guests more choice,” says Kevin Knight, Etihad Airways’ chief strategy and planning officer. “The introduction of a fourth daily flight to Cairo demonstrates our commitment to a market that has shown strong growth in passenger and freight traffic since the route was launched almost 12 years ago. Attracting both commercial and leisure travellers, the additional flights linking Cairo and Abu Dhabi with connections beyond will help cater for the growing demand on one of our most popular North African and global routes.”

Additionally, passengers travelling between Egypt and the GCC, South and North East Asia, and India will benefit from increased and better connecting options over the airline’s Abu Dhabi hub. To India, Etihad Airways and its strategic equity partner Jet Airways offer more than 250 weekly flights across 15 destinations. www.etihad.com
