"Etihad had announced that its plan was to fly the A380 exclusively between Abu Dhabi (AUH) and London (LHR), with no firm plans to fly the jet to any other destination, as the airline planned to bring back just four A380s. It seems the Abu Dhabi-based carrier has had a change of heart, and has announced that as of April 22, 2024, the A380 will also serve the New York (JFK) route."
Points Wire Note: While flying The Apartments on the London Heathrow route is fun, the JFK route is so much better as you have time to experience all it has to offer.
Here's hoping we see some award space when they launch the route!
