Etihad will increase its daily service to Kochi.

Etihad will increase its daily service to Kochi.

The official airline of the UAE, Etihad Airways, will start operating a new daily Airbus A320 service between Kochi (COK) and Abu Dhabi (AUH) starting on October 29.

With the addition of the second daily flight on October 29, there will be 20 weekly flights between Abu Dhabi and Kochi, providing both leisure and business travellers with more flexibility and improved connection to one of South India’s most dynamic cities.

“Etihad is thrilled to offer an additional service to Kochi in response to strong travel demand, bringing our operation up to nearly three flights per day,” said Arik De, Chief Revenue Officer.

This demonstrates the value of the Indian market for Etihad Airways and the emphasis we are placing on expanding our network to give our guests additional convenience and options, De continued.

The flights will increase connection between India and the US via Abu Dhabi in addition to enhancing access to the UAE, where visitors may take use of a US Pre-clearance facility for a smooth entry into the US.

The facility, which is the only one of its kind in the Middle East, enables travellers to the US to complete all immigration, customs, and agriculture inspections in Abu Dhabi before boarding their flight, bypassing immigration and lines at the destination.

In addition to increasing service to Kochi, Etihad Airways will increase service to seven other Indian cities throughout the winter, including Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Hyderabad, and Chennai.

Bookings for the new Kochi flights are now open on etihad.com and the Etihad Airways app.
