Etihad Airways has launched its inaugural flight to Al Alamein (DBB) on July 17, an Egyptian coastal city, adding it to its list of seasonal summer destinations.

 

The direct service operates twice-weekly from Abu Dhabi to Al Alamein, operating on Thursdays and Sundays.

 

Al Alamein, located along the Mediterranean and within reach of Alexandria, is expected to become a major leisure destination for UAE, the wider Gulf region, and beyond.

 

“The launch of Al Alamein reflects our strategic focus on expanding Etihad’s network to serve high-demand seasonal routes,” said Antonoaldo Neves, Chief Executive Officer at Etihad Airways. “As leisure travel continues to grow, destinations like Al Alamein offer tremendous appeal for our guests seeking premium summer experiences. This new connection supports our broader commitment to offering more choice and flexibility across our rapidly growing network.”

 

The new service will be operated by Etihad’s Airbus A320 aircraft, featuring eight Business seats and 150 Economy seats. -TradeArabia News Service
