ETIHAD MAKES MOBILE APP MORE FLEXIBLE

ETIHAD Airways has updated its mobile application for Android, Apple and Huawei smartphones, enabling travellers to manage their journey more easily.

New key features allow passengers to book flights with voice search and enrol in the airlines loyalty programme. They can also purchase upgrades or other extras, use Etihad Guest Miles as a form of payment, or choose from 10 other payment options, including the recentlyintroduced Travel Bank.

Frank Meyer, Etihad Chief Digital Officer, said: “To increase flexibility during the coronavirus pandemic, we have established Travel Bank, an account which guests can use for future redemption on flights.

"With the new app, guests are now able to book their next flight with travel credits they have saved while being unable to fly due to travel restrictions."

The new Etihad Airways app is available now to download through Google Play, Huawei Appgallery or Apple Store.
