Flexibility for customers
Both daily flights are timed for morning and evening departures and arrivals, offering travellers the flexibility to choose the schedule that suits them best. Morning arrivals in Paris give tourists the advantage of early hotel check-ins and more time to explore the city’s attractions, while evening arrivals cater to those seeking a smooth transition after work or other commitments. For business travellers, the schedule allows for full working days at both ends of the journey.
Unique in-flight features
The A380 will allow passengers to enjoy Etihad’s most celebrated inflight features, including The Residence, the world’s only three-room suite in the sky, First Apartments, and Business Studios. Economy passengers will also benefit from extra legroom.
