Etihad Airways is set to expand its European network with daily flights to Düsseldorf, Germany, and Copenhagen, Denmark, beginning 1 October 2025.
This increase will provide greater connectivity and flexibility for passengers traveling between Abu Dhabi and these two prominent European destinations.
For Düsseldorf, the new schedule marks a significant enhancement as Etihad transitions from a limited number of weekly flights to daily service.
The route will now be offered year-round, allowing travelers to enjoy the city’s vibrant fashion, art, and cultural scenes no matter the season. Whether it’s strolling along the luxury shopping street of Königsallee or experiencing the rich history of the Altstadt (Old Town), passengers can now travel more conveniently to this thriving hub of modernity and tradition.
Similarly, Etihad will also increase its Copenhagen service, moving from its current four-times-weekly flights to daily operations. Known for its blend of historical charm and contemporary design, Copenhagen will be more accessible to visitors eager to explore its colorful Nyhavn waterfront, the iconic Little Mermaid statue, or the famed Tivoli Gardens.
The Danish capital’s culinary appeal, featuring Michelin-starred restaurants, will undoubtedly entice food enthusiasts from around the world.
