Etihad Airways’ tour operating arm has launched a UK operation, its first outside the UAE.
Etihad Holidays is offering packages to Abu Dhabi, Saadiyat Island and Yas Island as well as neighbouring emirates, according to UAE paper Khaleej Times.
A range of tours and excursions such as desert safaris, transfers, boat trips and the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque will also be available.
Peter Baumgartner, Etihad’s chief commercial officer is quoted as saying the move is a ‘proud moment’ for the airline following its success within its domestic market.
“Etihad Airways has a strong customer base in the UK, using our three times a day service from Heathrow and double daily from Manchester as well as regions served by our codeshare partners, so international expansion of our Holidays operation to this market makes perfect sense,” he said.
Etihad Holidays has several retail outlets and distribution partnerships in the Middle East.
