UAE airlines expand to over 420 key destinations amid ceasefire: Here’s where they fly to

As regional tensions ease under a fragile ceasefire, UAE carriers like Emirates, Etihad, flydubai, and Air Arabia are continuing to fly and connect to hundreds of destinations across continents. While most continue to operate on a reduced number of flights, some, like Etihad, are introducing new destinations to expand their network in key markets.

The Abu-Dhabi based carrier is introducing flights to six new African cities (Accra, Asmara, Harare, Kinshasa, Lubumbashi, Lagos) to build up on its growth in China and India, connecting both continents with Abu Dhabi acting as a gateway.

The number of destinations has drastically risen since the start of this month, expanding from 250 destinations to 420, factoring both direct and connecting flights.
