UAE national carrier Etihad Airways will start flying non-stop to the tropical Indonesian getaway of Bali four times a week starting from April 23 next year.

This exciting development follows closely on the heels of our dynamic Summer 24 schedule, reinforcing our dedication to expanding our network in tune with the needs of our customers so they can travel to their desired destinations in comfort and style.
“Bali is the quintessential tropical escape, enchanting travellers with its verdant surroundings, vivid culture, and dreamlike beaches. From jade-green rice terraces to pristine white sands, the island balances exquisite beauty with deep tradition, offering a bewitching escape for those looking for tranquillity and excitement alike.
“We have timed the flights, so guests can even enjoy a long weekend if they choose. We can’t wait to go there,” stated Neves.
The debut flight EY 476 will take off from Abu Dhabi International Airport at 10.25pm and land in Bali (DPS) at 11.35am, while on return EY 477 will leave Bali at 6.45pm and arrive at AUH at 11.45pm.
Visitors travelling from Europe and North America will also find the timings convenient for combining their trip with a stopover in Abu Dhabi to enjoy the hospitality and remarkable attractions of the UAE’s capital.
