Etihad has already launched inaugural flights to four new destinations this year – Prague, Warsaw, Sochi and Atlanta. The airline said it is set to add another 13 routes before the year ends.
The announcement comes just days after Etihad unveiled three new seasonal summer destinations for 2026: Krakow in Poland, Salalah in Oman, and Kazan in Russia, all set to operate during the peak travel months.
“From the spiritual significance of Medina to the historic charm of Tbilisi and Yerevan, and the modern vibrancy of cities like Baku and Almaty, each destination adds depth to our growing network and attracts travellers with diverse interests,” said Antonoaldo Neves, Etihad’s Chief Executive Officer. “With these seven additions, Etihad will have launched 29 new routes in a single year – a remarkable milestone that reflects our ambition and commitment to Abu Dhabi’s growth,” Neves added.
