Latest customer reviews on Etihad Airways flights
Queue at check in was very long. Carry-on bags had to be less than 9 kg. Pitch and width of seats led to a very uncomfortable journey on the Dublin to AUH leg.
Hard for this flight to be enjoyable since it was around 18 hours of flying. I was disappointed that the chairs didn't have side head rests from UK to Abu Dhabi but the Abu Dhabi to Shanghai did. Staff were always polite and always offered regular refreshments.
It was good
Very long hours transit
Excellent outwards flight but slight issues with meals on return journey.
Very slow service in the flight. It was as if they are soing us a favour by serving us. Travelled first time with Etihad and had lot of expectations but I suppose it is all hype about their service and travel experience, the real experience is lot different.
