Today was the 3rd time in the last week I was promised an immediate callback by your call center team regarding changing the date of a flight which didn't happen...it is weird and annoying that apparently nobody at your call center is knowledgeable enough to rebook a partner award without conferring with the supervisor but is is unacceptable to be promised a call back that doesn't happen.
Hey! Still no answer from your team regarding the release of additional F award/upgrade space...how many days before departure are those seats released?
Also was promised a call back from your German language call center that never happened...not sure what Etihad changed about their call centers but they used to be quite good but the quality has gone downhill in the last few months...wrong answers, little to no knowledge about the whole Etihad Guest program or even how the system works.
If there is no supervisor around the people there are complete clueless what they can do or not and how it is done...maybe you should give them some refreshment classes about their work. On a positive note, they are quite friendly and try to be helpful but fail miserable due to the lack of knowledge.

Sorry for the late response.
Please be advised that there is no certain dates that the redemption seat and upgrade will open. It is based from the seat availability always.
If you are referring about F for EY454/455 on Nov flight, there is seats available, however O redemption is none.
For EY460/461, you can book for the first 3 days in Nov as F and O are avail.
Hope this may help. *Jiaqi

Dear Jiaqi!
Thanks for your reply which addresses the point of award/upgrade availability and shows how big the problem with that is! NO or just 3 days in a month availability 6 months out of the planned flight date is kinda unacceptable imo. Esp. with the high mileage rate you're asking compared to other programs!
Also, could you please clarify what Etihad is planning to do about the situation in the calling center not knowing about the procedures and not calling back high tier customers?

Hi EtihadHelp,
Following two phone calls which gave contradictory answers, can you please forward this to your in-flight catering team and let me know their answer. My question is: if I order a seafood meal and I'm in travelling in Business, will the seafood meal be the same as if I were travelling in Economy, or is it reflected by the cabin flown? One agent told me it would be the same, whilst one other agent told me it would be different. Also, if travelling in Business, would the appetiser be a guaranteed seafood meal also, for example smoked salmon and prawns? Thanks.

Hi EtihadHelp
I requested compensation with regards to http://www.airpassengerrights.eu/en/...cellation.html for a cancelled EY flight from London to Abu Dhabi. I sent an email to [email protected] and they acknowledged that the request was received but I have not heard back in weeks. Please help.

Hi sabdhabi,
Please accept our apologies for the delay, our team have confirmed to us that the main course would be fish or seafood but not necessarily the starter or the breakfast.
You will receive a menu on board to see the starter options available to you, Any special meal request is reflected with the respective cabin our guests are booked into.
We hope this helps *Gill

Dear Lurkers,
It's been almost three months since Etihad ran a joint promo with Heinemann. The bonus miles were supposed to post within two months, but no sign of them to date. Can you check what's going on?
