Etihad Airways Adds Second Daily Flight to New York

Etihad Airways, the national carrier of the United Arab Republics, doubled its number of flights from Abu Dhabi to New York. The airline will add a second daily flight as of March 1. 

Flight EY103 will depart Abu Dhabi International Airport at 1:45 a.m. and arrive at New York JFK at 7:45 a.m. the same day. The return flight, EY102, will leave New York at 11:35 a.m., arriving in Abu Dhabi at 9:20 a.m. the next day.  

The new New York-Abu Dhabi flight, arriving in Abu Dhabi in the morning, opens the possible connection possibilities widely by giving customers the rest of the day to make connections. Etihad’s other Abu Dhabi flight arrives at 9:40 p.m.

Etihad provides connections from Abu Dhabi to more than 30 destinations in India, the Middle East, Central and South East Asia, Africa and island nations in the Indian Ocean region.

The new flights will use two tri-class Boeing 777-300ER aircraft leased from Etihad’s strategic partner Jet Airways of India. Beginning May 1 Jet Airways will operate the new flights.
