Etihad Airways will increase its Airbus A380 service to Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) to double-daily this summer, expanding the route to triple-daily overall and making Paris one of only a handful of destinations in the world to be served twice a day by double-decker aircraft.
From July 1, Etihad’s expanded Paris schedule will include two daily Airbus A380 services departing Zayed Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) at convenient morning and afternoon departure times designed for both business and leisure travellers, complemented by a third daily Boeing 787-9 service featuring First, Business and Economy cabins.
Together, the additional frequencies will significantly expand premium travel capacity between Abu Dhabi and the French capital.
Arik De, Chief Revenue and Commercial
Officer, Etihad Airways, said: "Paris is one of our most popular and most
loved destinations, and this summer we are giving our guests more of what they
love. Flying double-daily on the A380 to Charles de Gaulle is a statement of
confidence in one of the world's great travel markets. Whether our guests are
heading to Paris for business, for leisure, or as the start of a journey onward
across Europe, we are offering them our iconic A380 experience at the double." -TradeArabia News Service
