Etihad’s exclusive suites debut at Malpensa
Added on Tue January 28th, 2025
Etihad Airways is significantly increasing its flight frequencies between Milan Malpensa and Abu Dhabi. Starting from October 1, 2025, weekly flights will increase to 18, complementing the two daily flights already launched in December. While the night flight at 10:50 PM will continue to be operated by a Dreamliner, the 10:55 AM flight will often be assigned to Etihad’s flagship Airbus A350-1000, which boasts 44 suites in Business Class.
Each Collins Aerospace Vector suite is equipped with a sliding door, a seat that transforms into a bed measuring 201 cm (79 inches) long, and a spacious 53.5 cm (21-inch) seat. It also features an 18.5-inch IFE screen and Bluetooth audio for a premium entertainment experience.
For Summer 2025, the airline will introduce the Airbus A350-1000 on the route, which stands out for its elegant Recaro CL3710 seats in Economy Class. These seats offer 46 cm of width, a 13.3-inch IFE screen, and a seat pitch of 79 cm. In Business Class, the A350-1000 features 44 Collins Aerospace Vector suites with 201 cm beds, 53.5 cm seats, 18.5-inch screens, and Bluetooth audio.
During the high summer season, morning flights will also be operated with the Boeing 777-300ER, which offers 40 Business Class seats and 330 Economy Class seats, maintaining a similar quality but with a more dated configuration compared to the A350.
