In a plane awesome move, Etihad Airways has increased the number of flights on the AUH-PVG route.
Now China is an easier destination on your bucket list too!
Thanks to Etihad Airways, there will be additional weekly frequency on its Abu Dhabi – Shanghai route beginning 2023.
Subject to regulatory approval, from February 2023, the airline will fly to Pudong International Airport (PVG) two times per week using modern Boeing 787 and 777 aircraft.
Add that to the existing weekly service to Beijing and a twice a week service to Guangzhou, and you have a grand total of five weekly nonstop flights between the UAE’s capital and China.

Today’s announcement follows the launch of nonstop flights between Abu Dhabi and Guangzhou in October 2022, when Etihad Airways became the first international airline to operate long-haul passenger flights to the top three Chinese gateways since the start of the pandemic.
The airline marked another milestone in China earlier this year when it operated the first regular international passenger flight to recommence to Beijing when the capital reopened for international direct travel in June 2022.
So go ahead and make those bookings!
