Etihad Airways, UAE’s national airline, will deploy additional flights between Abu Dhabi and Saudi Arabia to facilitate the movement of thousands of pilgrims during the Hajj season.
The airline will operate 15 extra flights between July 28 and August 25, to transport pilgrims to Madinah, it said in a statement.
Additionally, Etihad will operate six charter flights dedicated to the General Authority of Islamic Affairs, Sheikh Zayed Foundation and Abu Dhabi police.
The outbound flights will operate from Abu Dhabi to Jeddah and Madinah between August 1 and 5, with return flights scheduled for August 16 and 17.
On return flights from Saudi Arabia, Etihad Airways will permit Hajj pilgrims to carry a five-liter container of Zamzam water free of charge and will provide extra care for its handling, it added.
