Etihad Airways, the national carrier of the UAE, has welcomed 1.6 million guests during February 2025, achieving an average passenger load factor of 89 per cent.
The airline reported that passenger traffic in the first two months of this year increased to 3.3 million, compared to 2.9 million in the same period last year.
CEO of Etihad Airways, Antonoaldo Neves, said, "Our passenger numbers in February saw a strong 14 per cent growth compared to the same period last year, as we continue to be among the world's fastest-growing airlines.
"As our capacity continues to grow, it is pleasing to see we maintained our robust passenger load factor of 89 percent year-to-date, as we prepare for a busy 2025 with the launch of 14 new routes."
He added that the continued expansion is supported by the growth of the operating fleet, which is nearing three figures, with additional deliveries expected throughout 2025.
