Etihad switches A380 from Mumbai to Paris

ETIHAD AIRWAYS IS switching its A380 from Mumbai to Paris this summer and French travellers will be able to fly the superjumbo on one of two daily flights between July 1-October 28.

EY31 departs Abu Dhabi 0215 and arrives in Paris CDG at 0750 while EY32 departs Paris 1040 and arrives in Abu Dhabi 1930. Paris becomes Etihad’s fifth A380 destination. Mumbai flights EY 203 and EY204 will be operated by an A340-600.

Etihad said adjustments are part of seasonal planning based on market demand. New York JFK is also listed with two daily A380s this summer, despite reduced US demand following President Trump’s travel bans.
