Etihad Airways will operate the Airbus A380 on its second daily service to and Paris Charles de Gaulle from 1 October, 2018 replacing the Boeing 777-300ER currently on the service.

This will make the airline’s operation between the UAE and Paris a year-round all-A380 service, joining London Heathrow as the second European destination with daily multiple A380 flights.

The A380 will provide business and leisure travellers between the two cities with more options to experience Etihad’s latest award-winning cabins and products.

The airline has operated the A380 between Abu Dhabi and Paris on one of its two daily flights since 1 July 2017, with the service performing very strongly since its introduction.

Etihad Airways’ A380s feature a total of 496 seats including two in The Residence, nine in First Class, 70 in Business Class and 415 in the Economy Class cabin.
