Etihad Airways recently announced an optimisation of its United States network with equipment changes on two key markets in 2016.
Currently the airline operates leased Jet Airways Boeing 777-300ER aircraft for its daily flight to and from San Francisco. These aircraft will be replaced with Etihad Airways Boeing 777-200LRs from 25 April 2016.
The daily EY101 flight from Abu Dhabi to New York’s JFK airport and return EY100 service will also see leased Jet Airways Boeing 777-300ER aircraft replaced by Etihad Airways Boeing 777-300ERs from 1 June 2016.
The second daily Etihad Airways service to and from New York JFK, EY103 and EY102, will continue to be operated with the A380 aircraft in 2016.
The Etihad Airways Boeing 777-200LR to be deployed on the San Francisco route will offer 239 seats in a three class configuration – eight first class seats, 40 business class seats and 191 economy class seats. The Boeing 777-300ER to be deployed on the New York route will be configured to carry 328 passengers in three cabins, with eight first class seats, 40 business class seats, and 280 economy class seats.
