Etihad sign Flybe codeshare
06.11.09
Etihad Airways customers will soon be able to fly to a host of new regional airports within the UK, following the signing of a new codeshare agreement with regional airline Flybe. The deal will also give air travellers in the UK greater and easier access to the Abu Dhabi-based airline's rapidly expanding network of more than 55 destinations.
Etihad currently flies directly from Abu Dhabi to two destinations within the UK - a three-times-per-day service to Heathrow and a daily service to Manchester. The new codeshare agreement with Flybe will give Etihad customers access to several regional airports in the UK, including Southampton, Birmingham and Belfast.
Under the deal, Etihad will place its two-letter 'EY' code on a number of services operated by Flybe between Paris, Frankfurt and Manchester and 35 regional airports within the UK. Flybe will place its 'BE' code on Etihad's flights between the same three destinations and its Abu Dhabi home base.
