Etihad Airways has launched direct services from Abu Dhabi to Krakow and Palma de Mallorca, extending its European leisure push with two three-times-weekly Airbus A321LR routes. Krakow entered the schedule on 11 June, followed by Palma on 12 June, with both city pairs served by Etihad’s premium narrowbody cabin and First Class offering.
The Krakow operation gives the carrier a second point in Poland after Warsaw and positions it as the only airline offering First Class on the Gulf link. Palma opens a nonstop bridge between the Balearics and Abu Dhabi, adding another southern Europe feed into Etihad’s long-haul network.
The launches deepen Abu Dhabi’s role as a transfer hub and widen the carrier’s access to leisure traffic across Europe.
