Etihad Airways has unveiled plans to upgrade its Singapore-Abu Dhabi flights with the introduction of First Class from 1 June 2015.
The daily service, using a three-class Airbus A330-330 aircraft, will offer travellers the added benefit of a new evening departure from Abu Dhabi and morning arrival in Singapore, enabling better flight connections to popular business and leisure destinations such as London, Munich, Paris and Zurich.
Etihad Airways’ President and Chief Executive Officer James Hogan said, “We have carried more than 340,000 passengers on the Singapore-Abu Dhabi route since we started flying there in 2007 and it has consistently been a solid performer ever since. With the delinking of Brisbane from the route, Singapore will no longer share capacity with Australia and this means more seats will be available in the local market. This, combined with the introduction of our superior First Class and retimed flights, will deliver our strongest and most competitive guest proposition ever to Singaporean travellers. We also have plans to work with the tourism board and our industry partners to promote Singapore as a holiday destination – with a focus on travellers from the Middle East and Europe.”
The new A330-300 Singapore-Abu Dhabi flights will offer eight seats in First Class, 32 seats in Business Class and 191 seats in Economy Class. Guests in the First Class cabin will be able to enjoy the luxury and comfort of private suites with their fully flat beds upholstered with Poltrona Frau leather and cuisine prepared on board from a fully stocked larder of fresh produce by the airline’s professionally trained chefs.
Etihad Airways commenced three weekly flights to Singapore on 28 September, 2007 and went daily on 1 February 2013. It currently operates a two-class Airbus A330-200 aircraft between Singapore and Abu Dhabi with 22 seats in Business Class and 240 seats in Economy Class.
