Other Middle East and Africa Frequent Flyer Programs - Etihad new first class cabin

hi there

so i really want to try it out

the problem is that im not sure what flight will it be on? i know they fly 3 times daily to london

i tried the call center and they have no clue they just say its on the 340/600 and i beilve that plane is flown twice if not all of the daily flights

any help?

Dear dubai58,

Present plans are for the aircraft with the new Diamond First Class suite to be used on the EY17/EY18 flights into and out of London Heathrow. Of course, there's always the possibility of changes due to aircraft rotations, but that's the plan for now.

I do hope you manage to 'sample' the truly amazing new configuration in Diamond First Class - I'm sure you'll love it! :)

Enjoy!

P.S. If you do book and fly - please post a trip report.

You have made my day - I am booked with my family to fly EY18 and EY11, in November so we'll get to try it out. :) What are the chances of EY11 being
the new suites by November?

I have been a dedicated Qantas/BA flyer for many years, so I am looking forward to trying something different and will definitely post a trip report.

thanks alot you have been very helpful

i heard alot of good things about these new cabins on etihad

I gather than the EY AB340-600s have a small lounge in front of the First Class cabin for use by F passengers.

Do the AB 340-500s also have that lounge?

Many thanks.
