Post Etihad's interesting financing of a couple of A346 widebodies
Etihad has announced the financing details of a couple of A346 widebodies, once delivered last month and the other coming next month, Reuters reports.

Interesting news as one was financed through a multinational 3-bank consortium but the other through 'Al Hilal Bank, a new Islamic bank based in Abu Dhabi'.

Perhaps a case of one hand to the other hand financing from Abu Dhabi?

I wonder if Emirates is getting the same kind of deals for finance, or whether the differing fortunes of Dubai and Abu Dhabi mean a differential pricing approach?
