There’s never a bad time to book a holiday but Black Friday may be one of the best, especially when you can save up to 20% on flights with Etihad Airways.
Starting on Friday 24 November 2023, you can save a fifth of your airfare when you fly with Etihad. Use your savings to upgrade to first class, to offset your accommodation or to extend your holiday spending by a few days.
Etihad Airways was named as the third best airline in the world this year, meaning you can fly in style without breaking the bank.
Where does Etihad fly from in the UK?
Etihad offers flights from two airports in England: London Heathrow and Manchester.
For those across the Irish Sea, there are also flights available from Dublin.
Where can you fly to with Etihad?
From those three airports in the British Isles, the only direct flight with Etihad Airways goes to their base in Abu Dhabi.
Once in the UAE, you can catch a connecting flight to many countries, including many in Africa, Asia and Australia. Here are a few of our favourites:
Melbourne, Australia
Melbourne is one of two Australian cities you can fly to with Etihad (the other being Sydney). And while Sydney has many of the famous sites — like the Opera House — Melbourne oozes charm and creativity. Plus, it’s the home of some of the country’s biggest sporting arenas, home to a colony of wild penguins (really!) and close to the starting point for the Great Ocean Road, one of Australia’s best driving routes.
Victoria, Seychelles
Just a short flight from Abu Dhabi is Seychelles, an idyllic island chain in the Indian Ocean. There’s not too much to do here, but that’s kind of the point. Book a coastal resort and enjoy the best rest of your life. Lie on the many picture-perfect beaches, rest under palm trees and marvel at the wildlife — the Seychelles is the only place outside the Galapagos Islands where you can see ancient giant tortoises.
Seoul, South Korea
Etihad flies to dozens of Asian destinations so it’s hard to pick just one. South Korea’s capital is a great choice as it’s a city that has it all. Marvel at the technological side of one of the world’s most advanced cities — but one that hasn’t forgotten its past. In between towering skyscrapers, you’ll find temples that are thousands of years old. You also have nature hikes within the city’s bounds and plenty of oddities, like puppy cafes, for a unique flavour.
