Etihad launches flight to Luxembourg

Etihad Airways began its first flight from Abu Dhabi to Luxembourg on October 21, marking the first direct link between the Middle East and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

Flight frequency and aircraft details

The service will run four times a week, using an Airbus A321LR, which features two first-class suites, fourteen business-class seats, and 144 economy-class seats.

A321LR's strategic role

Etihad introduced the A321LR into its fleet during the summer of 2025, allowing the airline to refine its growth strategy by serving destinations where larger aircraft might not be economically viable.

Etihad's growth outlook

Antonoaldo Neves, CEO of Etihad Airways, stated that 2026 is a year of strong growth for the airline’s network, with Luxembourg playing a special role in this expansion.

Luxembourg service highlights

Etihad is proud to offer its full three-class experience to Luxembourg from the very first flight, emphasizing its commitment to providing premium service on this new route.
