Etihad Airways reported Monday that it will increase its flights to New York from November 15.
The airline will add four weekly flights on the Abu Dhabi – New York route, providing a total of 11 weekly nonstop services to John F. Kennedy International Airport.
The new flights will be operated with Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, while existing daily services will continue on the Airbus A350, which has been deployed on the New York route since June.

The increased frequency will give travelers more choice and flexibility between the two cities.
Travelers will also benefit from improved access between New York and Etihad’s global network of 70 destinations, particularly in the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, as well as connections beyond New York, to and from 46 destinations in the entire American continent, thanks to the codeshare agreement with JetBlue.
“Our New York service continues to operate strongly and, having already experienced record passenger demand this summer, Etihad is pleased to continue to invest in this market by increasing frequency levels ahead of the peak winter travel period,” said Alex. Featherstone, Vice President of Planning and Network Alliances.
