Emirates and Etihad have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to expand their interline agreement and give travellers more itinerary options when visiting the UAE.
Passengers of each airline will be able to purchase a single ticket to fly into either Dubai or Abu Dhabi, with a seamless return via the other airport from this summer. The MoU will also provide travellers planning to explore the UAE with the flexibility of one-stop ticketing for their full journey and convenient baggage check-in.
Visitors will be able to travel when in Abu Dhabi, Dubai or any other emirate, saving time by removing the need to depart from their arrival airport.
Those travelling to the UAE also have the option of multi-city flights within the country, with the choice of travelling from one city on either carrier’s network and returning to another point in the UAE served by either Emirates or Etihad.
