Etihad Airways has unveiled a strategic enhancement to its flights between Abu Dhabi and Milan, marking the introduction of a third daily flight starting from November 1, 2025. This adjustment aims to provide better customer service and options as demand surges.

“With our morning, afternoon, and evening departures from Abu Dhabi and sensational value fares, our triple-daily Milan flights provide optimal timings for guests traveling in both directions,” stated Arik De, Chief Revenue and Commercial Officer at Etihad Airways.

The increase will offer a total of 12,600 seats per week, showcasing a staggering 115% year-on-year growth in capacity. The Boeing 777-300 and Airbus A321LR will be utilized for these services.
