The carrier has created a secure and hygienic environment across the entire customer journey including free PCR testing for guests departing the UAE and free COVID-19 insurance for all passengers globally.
In Wednesday’s announcement, Etihad Airways’ Senior Vice President – Global Sales & Cargo, Martin Drew, said,
