Etihad Airways will launch non-stop daily flights to Medina, the regional capital of the western Saudi Arabian province of Al Madinah and the second holiest city in Islam after Mekkah. 
With the addition of the new service, which will start on February 1, EY will offer 50 weekly flights to four destinations in Saudi Arabia which, along with Medina, include Dammam, Riyadh and Jeddah.   
Flights between Abu Dhabi and Medina will be operated by an A320 aircraft fitted with 16 business-class and 120 economy-class seats, offering a total 1 904 seats per week. 
The new services are set to meet growing demand from religious Hajj and Umrah travellers wishing to visit the city, which is the home of Prophet Mohammed’s mosque and burial site.
