Etihad Airways

Feature

Last month, Etihad Airways unveiled its new economy-class service with a light and sound show on the world’s tallest building, Burj Khalifa, in Dubai.

The cabin upgrades come to the airline’s Airbus A320 and A321. Enhancements include a completely new dining concept for economy service. On flights longer than three hours, passengers will have a larger main course created with a focus on seasonal ingredients and destination-focused meals. The meal service will also utilize base plates designed with recycled materials, lighter cutlery allowing for reduced fuel burn and aircraft weight and the continued pledge by the airline to reduce its single-use plastics. To this end, the airline will remove 27 million plastic lids from service each year.

Other improvements to the economy service include new Acro-designed seats. These “extra-spatial” seats are an upgrade for every economy passenger.

Finally, the in-flight entertainment has been revamped, allowing for passengers to watch more than 300 hours of complimentary entertainment. The content is streamed directly to passengers’ wireless devices through Etihad’s onboard streaming service.
