Etihad Airways has launched its annual global sales campaign, targeted at business and economy class guests, with fares available on a wide range of destinations served across the world and fares available for travel until June 2017. Guests can make the most of this offer over seven days, by booking on etihad.com or via their local travel agent, between Aug. 29 and Sept. 4, 2016. The sale will offer up to 50% off fares to forty-five of the world's most popular destinations from across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa and the Americas. In addition, members of the airline's loyalty program, Etihad Guest, will continue to earn miles on all fares in the sale. Daniel Barranger, Senior Vice President of Global Sales at Etihad Airways, said: "We have continued to expand our global network this year and add further aircraft to the fleet, ensuring we have a high quality product throughout our aircraft and available to the millions of guests who choose to fly with us each year. By including our partner airlines in our new offer, we are providing access to a larger list of destinations and a combined fleet of over 700 aircraft, ensuring we can meet every guest's personal requirements." The sale will cover a wider range of cities including those served by the Etihad Airways Partners. With a combined network of over 400 destinations across six continents, the partners provide even greater access across the combined destinations of Etihad Airways, airberlin, Alitalia, Air Serbia, Air Seychelles, Etihad Regional, Jet Airways and NIKI. For the experience of all guests, Etihad Airways continues to invest in world-leading in-flight products throughout its cabins. The airline has pioneered supporting features such as Flying Nannies to assist parents with young children and Economy Smart Seats, specially designed to provide more comfort and legroom. Additions to the airline fleet have seen Airbus 380s serving Abu Dhabi, London, Sydney, Mumbai, New York and Melbourne while Boeing 787 Dreamliner services have been added to cities including Abu Dhabi, Shanghai, Perth and Dusseldorf, with the new aircraft allocated to serve Johannesburg before the end of the year. On the ground, new lounges have opened over the last 12 months in New York, Los Angeles and Melbourne while a flagship First Class Lounge and Spa opened its doors in Abu Dhabi in May. Alongside the continuous service updates and improvements onboard, the global sale is another addition to Etihad Airways' diverse strategy of developing world-class products and experiences for its guests and to continue to reimagine travel. — SG
