Etihad Airways, China Eastern Airlines, and IndiGo are expanding their international networks this month.
Etihad Airways is launching five new destinations: Algiers, Chiang Mai, Hanoi, Hong Kong, and Tunis, and resuming flights to Medina.
The additions mark the airline’s largest single-month expansion in recent years and build on its network diversification strategy.
Most new routes will be operated by Airbus A321LR aircraft, allowing the carrier to unlock underserved medium-haul markets with lower demand.
