    Etihad Cargo will be able to offer more belly capacity to customers with Etihad’s plans to increase frequencies and add 16 new destinations between November 2025 and March 2026

    As part of its winter schedule, Etihad will add passenger flights to Hanoi, Hong Kong and Taipei that will expand Etihad Cargo’s bellyhold cargo capacity and strengthen the carrier’s operations in Asia, providing greater access to some of the world’s fastest-growing cargo markets.

    Etihad Cargo will also benefit from increased frequencies to a number of existing destinations, including Lisbon, Manchester, Warsaw, Atlanta and Bangkok.

    Between November 2025 and March 2026, Etihad Airways will also progressively launch services to 16 new destinations, including Addis Ababa, Algiers, Almaty, Baku, Bucharest, Chiang Mai, Kazan, Krabi, Medan, Medina, Phnom Penh, Tashkent, Tbilisi and Yerevan.

    Stanislas Brun, chief cargo officer, Etihad Cargo, said: “Our customers remain at the core of our strategy. This expanded winter schedule offers greater access to Etihad Cargo’s global network, providing more capacity, flexibility and reliable connections.

    “Whether moving goods between continents or enabling rapid regional transport, we are committed to supporting industries with world-class cargo solutions.”

    By October 2025, Etihad Cargo will provide bellyhold capacity on over 880 passenger flights each week, rising to more than 1,000 flights weekly by March 2026, further strengthening global connectivity and customer choice.

    Etihad Cargo recently said that it planned to add additional freighters as it prepares for the arrival of its new A350 freighters.
