Etihad Airways Expands Paris Service with A380 and Dreamliner

Etihad Airways has announced a significant expansion in its services to Paris, set to commence in January 2025. The UAE’s national carrier will offer double daily flights between Abu Dhabi and the French capital, deploying both the Airbus A380 and the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner to enhance passenger options.

The Airbus A380, which was retired from Etihad’s fleet during the global aviation downturn, marks its return with this new Paris service. Its reintroduction has been driven by the surge in demand for premium travel, particularly on popular routes such as Abu Dhabi to Paris. Etihad has underscored the importance of catering to high-end customers, offering a luxurious experience in First, Business, and Economy cabins.

In tandem with the A380, Etihad’s three-class Dreamliner, the Boeing 787-9, will also serve the Paris route, ensuring that passengers have the choice of cutting-edge aircraft for both leisure and business travel. This dual-service strategy enables the airline to provide enhanced connectivity from Abu Dhabi to Europe, as well as to key destinations across Asia and the GCC region.
