Etihad Airways will launch the first nonstop service between the Middle East and Western Canada\u00a0on November 3, 2026, linking Abu Dhabi with Calgary\u00a0four times weekly aboard a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner.<\/p>\n
The route is the only nonstop link between the two regions, and it complements Etihad’s existing services to Toronto, New York, Chicago and, eventually Charlotte beginning in March.<\/p>\n
For Canadian travellers, it opens direct access to Abu Dhabi and connections across Africa and Asia; for inbound travellers, it positions Calgary as the gateway to Alberta and the Rockies.<\/p>\n
Etihad CEO,\u00a0Antonoaldo Neves,\u00a0said the route is designed to stimulate two-way tourism and deepen ties between the two regions.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are opening new opportunities for trade, tourism and investment, while giving travellers direct access to two distinctive and globally important destinations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
