Etihad Airways has commenced operations to two new key destinations in Central Europe: Prague and Warsaw. On Monday, June 2, the airline launched its inaugural flight to the Czech capital, followed by its first landing in Poland’s vibrant capital on Tuesday, June 3. These additions are part of an ambitious expansion plan that includes 16 new destinations in 2025.
Global Connectivity from Abu Dhabi
“Our new services to Prague and Warsaw open doors to endless possibilities,” said Antonoaldo Neves, CEO of Etihad Airways. The new routes not only strengthen ties between the Middle East and Central Europe but also offer seamless connections from Abu Dhabi to Africa, Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and Australia.
Prague: A Gothic Gem and Cultural Destination
Known as the ‘City of a Hundred Spires,’ Prague dazzles with its Gothic architecture, centuries-old squares, and vibrant cultural scene. Its UNESCO-listed historic center boasts architectural treasures spanning eight centuries. Beyond its cobblestone streets, the region offers historic castles, spa towns, and enchanting landscapes.

Warsaw: A Fusion of Tradition and Modernity
Poland’s capital surprises with its contrasts: from elegant facades to contemporary skyscrapers, traditional markets to an emerging culinary scene. Warsaw blends historic parks with cutting-edge cultural spaces and serves as a gateway to Poland’s natural wonders, including pristine forests and majestic mountain ranges.
Abu Dhabi: A Meeting Point Between East and West
Travelers from the Czech Republic and Poland visiting the UAE can explore Abu Dhabi, a city that harmonizes tradition with modern luxury. From the serenity of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque to the avant-garde art of the Louvre Abu Dhabi, desert adventures, world-class golf courses, and the theme parks of Yas Island.
Sustained Expansion and Modern Fleet
The launch of these routes coincides with a period of growth for Etihad. Throughout 2025, the airline will add destinations such as Atlanta (July), Taipei (September), and several Asian cities, including Hong Kong, Hanoi, and Krabi in the final quarter.
Flights to Prague and Warsaw are operated with Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners, equipped with 28 Business Studios featuring fully flat beds and direct aisle access. The Economy Smart class, with 262 seats, ensures greater comfort. The onboard experience is enhanced by the latest entertainment technology and passenger-centric design.
These new routes solidify the airline’s network and position Abu Dhabi as a key hub connecting East and West during a dynamic period for global aviation.
