Etihad Airways which serves Toronto three times per
week from their Abu Dhabi hub have announced “Etihad Partners” a tighter
conglomeration of 6 airlines (many of which are owned or partly owned
by Etihad). This new pseudo airline alliance which has the possibility
of growing into a full fledged one based on wording in their press
release sees stronger ties between Etihad and air berlin, air Serbia,
Air Seychelles, Etihad Regional (operated by Darwin Airline) and Jet
Airways. You can book one ticket to travel on their combined network of
over 250 destinations and it will see an alignment of each airlines’
frequent flyer programs in terms of elite tiers, mileage earning and
more. Find out more here.
Etihad Airways today unveiled Etihad Airways Partners, a new brand which
brings together like-minded airlines to offer customers more choice
through improved networks and schedules and enhanced frequent flyer
benefits. Initially, six airlines will participate in the new
partnership – airberlin, Air Serbia, Air Seychelles, India’s Jet
Airways, Darwin Airline, and Etihad Airways. However, any airline can
become an Etihad Airways Partner even if it is part of an existing
alliance, such as airberlin, which is a member of oneworld.
