The city’s impressive infrastructure, including Zayed International Airport, will support this rapid growth and enhance the guest experience.

Neves added, “2025 marks a pivotal year for Etihad, with more than 90 destinations in over 50 countries, a fleet of over 110 aircraft – including our new A321LRs – and more than 20 million guests expected onboard. Most importantly, it will help bring over a million visitors to Abu Dhabi to enjoy our home.”
