Etihad
Airways is to showcase several of its new innovative products and destinations at next month’s Arabian Travel
Market in Dubai.
More than 10,000 visitors
are expected to attend the 2006 ATM, which takes place at Dubai’s World Trade Centre between 2 – 5 May. The Etihad stand will have a
unique theme to reflect the Abu Dhabi-based airline’s new destinations of Paris and New York.
Etihad will also display the new fully-flat, Pearl Zone Business Bed, in addition to the Wi-Fi TV and AVOD (audio and video on demand) capabilities
on its new fleet of aircraft.
“ATM is one of the world’s most prestigious travel events, and provides an ideal opportunity to exhibit the growth of Etihad Airways, and the
UAE, to a global audience. Every year the ATM brings a wealth of international travel companies to the UAE which reflects the continued development of
our aviation and travel industry. All of us here at Etihad Airways look forward to participating in ATM, and I am confident that the event will provide
us with the ideal platform to promote our new services and destinations,” said HH Dr. Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saif Al Nahyan, chairman at Etihad
Airways.
Etihad is experiencing a period of tremendous growth which has seen the addition of 14
new international destinations, and the arrival of five of its new fleet of 29 Airbus and Boeing aircraft, in the last 12 months.
“There is a lot of excitement surrounding Etihad and our continued growth, which will ensure we have a very productive and busy ATM. Etihad has
invested a great deal of time and effort into our new products, and these will be on display for the travel industry to see,”
added HH Dr. Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saif Al Nahyan, chairman at Etihad Airways.
This rapid network expansion is set to continue in 2006, with new services to Casablanca, Dhaka, Doha, Jeddah and Kuwait to be launched, along
with New York and Paris.
Senior members of Etihad management will attend the ATM, including H.H. Dr. Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saif Al Nahyan, Chairman of Etihad Airways and
Robert Strodel, CEO of Etihad Airways.
Etihad Airways will be exhibiting at stand number 6,250, in hall 6, Dubai World Trade Centre at the 2006 ATM.
