Etihad Airways will provide travellers with even more connections between India, the UAE and other key markets around the world, following a major service upgrade to Cochin, Bangalore, Chennai, Kozhikode and Hyderabad this summer.
Due to strong demand from business and leisure travellers, a double-daily frequency will be operated to Bangalore, Chennai and Kozhikode from Tuesday, and Hyderabad from October 1. As a result, guests have the option of daytime or overnight flights, and improved connections between India and key markets in the GCC, Middle East, Africa, Europe and North America.
Double-daily frequencies were also introduced to Cochin route last month, as well as Mumbai and New Delhi in November 2013, supporting a long-term development plan in India.
The airline will utilise new Airbus A320s, scheduled for delivery this year, to accommodate much of the increased frequencies. Larger wide-body aircraft were also introduced on selected routes in November 2013, with a three-class A340 on overnight Mumbai flights, marking the debut of Etihad Airways’ First Class product on the route, and A330s on overnight Delhi flights.
