In July alone the airline welcomed 1.7 million passengers, a 33 per cent rise on the same month in 2023.
Etihad Airways' CEO, Antonoaldo Neves, said, "Year-to-date, we have served 10.4 million passengers, up 2.8 million on the same period last year, and as of July 2024, our rolling 12-month passenger count now stands at 16.8 million.
“July's load factor of 89 per cent reflects our successful performance during a peak summer period, amidst significant capacity expansion since 2023.
