According to Etihad Airways’ president and chief executive James Hogan, the new service will bring major benefits to Spain and deliver enhanced flight connections to and from the country.
“Our new Madrid service gives Spanish business and leisure travellers greater access to the UAE with a total of 2,096 weekly seats on offer. It also provides convenient two-way connections via our Abu Dhabi hub to important markets on Etihad Airways’ strong global network,” said Hogan.
In return, Etihad Airways customers can connect, via Madrid, to eight additional cities in Spain through the carrier’s ongoing codeshare partnership with Air Europa. These include Barcelona, Bilbao, Gran Canaria, La Coruna, Lanzarote, Palma de Mallorca, Tenerife and Vigo, and also to Santo Domingo – the capital of the Dominican Republic.
