Etihad Airways is to mark 10 years of its Abu Dhabi-to-Doha route by launching nine additional weekly flights to the Qatar capital.
The UAE carrier will increase the weekly frequency of the route to 37 services from August 1, including more morning flights and early evening departures on Thursdays and Saturdays.
Since the route was launched in 2006, Etihad has steadily increased frequency to meet demand, said Daniel Barranger, Etihad Airways’ Senior Vice President of Global Sales.
“Qatar is a key market for Etihad Airways,” he said. “Since 2006, we have progressively developed the Abu Dhabi-to-Doha route to four daily flights, and what better way to celebrate our 10th anniversary linking the two capital cities than by upgrading this important route with nine new flights each week, further demonstrating our commitment to the Doha market?”
“With an improved schedule to and from Doha, greater network reach and more connectivity, we look forward to giving our guests increased choice and access to even more destinations we fly to via our Abu Dhabi hub.”
Travellers who make the journey from Doha to Etihad Airways’ six US gateway cities – New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Washington and Dallas – are eligible for US Pre-Clearance immigration and customs facilities at Abu Dhabi International Airport, ensuring guests arrive in the US as domestic passengers, avoiding the need to complete lengthy immigration formalities upon arrival.
