Strong Demand
As reported earlier, Etihad Airways (EY) India head, Salil Nath, has exciting plans to broaden its operations in India. These plans involve launching new flights and increasing the frequencies of existing ones.
This move comes as the airline aims to fully utilize its weekly seat allocation to and from India under the bilateral air service agreement.
The Abu Dhabi (AUH) based airline currently has many unutilized seats, amounting to 10,000 per week out of the total 50,000 allocated seats.
By expanding its services and filling these unutilized seats, Etihad Airways is gearing up to enhance its presence and connectivity in the Indian market.
In partnership with Abu Dhabi Air Arabia (G9), Etihad operates 165 weekly flights to ten important gateways across India. Further, these gateways include Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, New Delhi, Hyderabad, Kochi, Kolkata, Kozhikode, and Thiruvananthapuram.
According to Nath, India’s airline network has witnessed substantial growth in 2023, with a 54% increase.
