Etihad Airways targets 21.5mln passengers, 18 new aircraft in 2025

Antonoaldo Neves, Chief Executive Officer at Etihad Airways, unveiled the airline's ambitious plans for 2025, aiming to carry approximately 21.5 million passengers by the end of the year, more than double the number recorded in 2022. Speaking to the Emirates News Agency (WAM), Neves said the growth is underpinned by a major fleet expansion, with 18 new aircraft expected to be delivered before the year ends. Two aircraft have already joined the fleet, with 16 more scheduled for delivery in the coming months. Having transported more than 10 million passengers during the first half of the year, the airline is on track to close 2025 with a fleet of between 115 and 120 aircraft. Neves reviewed the airline's upward performance trajectory, noting that Etihad Airways reached financial break-even in 2022, achieved a profit margin of 3 percent in 2023, and increased that to around 6 percent last year. This year, profit margins are expected to range between 7 and 8 percent. He said the company is following a strategy of 'gradually expanding margins each year' and is funding its growth through internal cash flows, contributing to sustainable financial performance. On its global network, which is approaching 100 destinations, the CEO explained that the airline's growth strategy is not limited to adding new routes, but also includes increasing frequencies on existing routes. Flights to destinations such as Frankfurt and Barcelona have doubled to twice daily, while Bangkok now receives five daily flights during peak periods. He noted that around two-thirds of the increased capacity is allocated to existing destinations, with only one-third targeting new routes, highlighting the airline's focus on strengthening its market position in established regions. Atlanta, for instance, launched with five weekly flights and now operates daily. New York, which had one daily flight 18 months ago, now operates two, and all western destinations are now served with daily flights. Neves confirmed that Etihad Airways' strategy through to 2030 focuses on strengthening its presence, particularly in markets within a four-hour flight radius, including India, Pakistan and the Middle East. The airline currently operates four daily flights to key destinations such as Colombo, Riyadh, Jeddah, Mumbai and Muscat, offering competitive flexibility in schedules that caters to diverse traveller segments. He added that the airline aims to offer at least two daily flights to all its destinations across Southeast Asia, Europe and the eastern United States. In a step to redefine regional travel, Neves revealed that Etihad will take delivery of its first A321 Long Range aircraft this week in Hamburg. This will be the first narrow-body aircraft in the fleet to feature a first-class cabin with fully flat luxury seats, which he described as 'the world's best travel experience on a narrow-body aircraft.' He affirmed that Zayed International Airport has the capacity to support this growth, with plans to grow the fleet to around 200 aircraft and serve between 38 and 39 million passengers by 2030, effectively doubling the company's size over the next five years. Neves praised the rapid development in Abu Dhabi, calling it an exceptional place to live and work. He noted that the capital's population is growing at an annual rate of 7 percent – five to six times the global average – which is driving demand for travel and services. International events hosted by Abu Dhabi, including exhibitions and conferences, along with its expanding tourism and cultural sectors, are also contributing to increased travel demand to and from the capital. He said, 'We have doubled our flight capacity in Abu Dhabi in just two and a half years. This positions us as a major contributor to development, while also benefitting significantly from government investment in infrastructure and tourism.' In response to a question on aircraft delivery challenges, Neves explained that Etihad had anticipated delays from manufacturers and structured its operational plans accordingly by accelerating the induction of leased aircraft and reintroducing seven A380 aircraft into service. He concluded by stating that the airline is now more agile and better positioned to respond to market dynamics, as it continues advancing towards its vision of becoming the preferred airline for travellers by offering exceptional service, flexibility and smart expansion.

'World tour, Labubu for daughter': Dubai's Indian expat wins $1 million, reveals plans

Dubai's newest millionaire, Sabish Peroth, plans to buy a 'cute Labubu' for his daughter and take his family on a world tour. The Dubai-born and raised Indian expat shared this in his first comment to Khaleej Times after winning $1 million Dubai Duty Free draw, which he had been participating for the past six years. The 42-year-old senior operations supervisor at a logistics company has been pooling money with his colleagues to buy raffle tickets regularly. 'There were 20 of us when we started, but only 10 have continued for the last two years. This time, we got lucky,' said Sabish, who hails from Thrissur in Kerala. The winning ticket (4296) was purchased online on July 4, and when Sabish received the call, he couldn't believe it. 'I thought it was a prank or some promotional call. When they asked for my details and announced that I had won, my hands began to shake. I couldn't breathe,' he said. Sabish, who has been working in the same company for 17 years, said the group plans to divide the money equally. 'Each of us will get approximately Dh370,000. Most of us are settled here. We will continue working, but this will also help us start a small business. It's a great boost,' he said. He said his wife, who works in Sharjah, and his young daughter were equally excited. 'My daughter was shocked, but now she just wants her toys, especially Labubu. She keeps reminding me.' After years of hoping for a win, Sabish believes the wait was worth it. 'We were not expecting it, but somewhere in our hearts, we believed one day it would happen.' First-ever Russian winner Joining Sabish in the millionaire ranks is Maen Saleh, a 57-year-old Russian based in Doha, Qatar. He won in Series 509 with ticket number 1184, becoming the first Russian national to take home the $1 million prize. 'This win will help me build a house in my village in Suzdal and support my son's education in Malta,' he said. The Dubai Duty Free draw also saw four others win luxury vehicles. Czech national Alice Semianova won a Mercedes-Benz S500, while Indian expat Sridhar Ankam Bhikshapathi, a porter at Dubai Airport, won a Bentley Bentayga V8. Indian national Roby Devassy won a Ducati Multistrada motorbike, and British expat Robert Miggels, based in Ras Al Khaimah, rode away with a BMW S 1000 R.
