About
Etihad Airways flight tracking
Etihad operates from Abu Dhabi, offering an alternative to Emirates and Qatar for Gulf routing to Asia and Australia. Abu Dhabi airport is smaller than Dubai, with shorter connection times.
UK to Abu Dhabi flights depart evening and arrive early morning local time (7-hour flight). Connections from Abu Dhabi to Asia or Australia continue overnight. Similar to Emirates, someone's asleep during landing.
Etihad has scaled back from its peak ambitions but maintains a strong network to Australia (Sydney, Melbourne) and Asia. For UK families tracking relatives on these routes, Abu Dhabi connections are often cheaper than Emirates.
Abu Dhabi's new terminal (opened 2023) is modern and efficient.
