Etihad double daily service from Manchester

ETIHAD Airways, the UAE’s national airline, will double its flight frequency between Manchester and Abu Dhabi from August 1, 2011 from seven to 14 flights each week.

The news is a further capacity boost following Etihad’s announcement earlier this year that the August 1 increase would be from daily to 10 flights a week.

Etihad continues to build its commitment to Manchester and the North West region of England following the opening of its First and Business Class lounge at Manchester Airport in November 2010.
