The El Alamein route will open a gateway to Egypt’s northern coast with the Mediterranean
Taking to the skies in July 2025 from Abu Dhabi, the service will provide travellers nonstop access to the Al Sahel region, a location recognised for rich historical significance, vibrant landscapes and clear waters.
The new route aims to connect travellers from the UAE, Gulf region and beyond to the emerging tourist hotspot.
CEO of Etihad Airways, Antonoaldo Neves, said, “El Alamein is the entry point to Egypt’s hidden gem, offering a mix of natural beauty and cultural history, and we are sure it will become a popular choice for guests seeking relaxation and adventure. This new route further underlines our commitment to providing exceptional travel experiences and expanding access to exciting new markets.”
The service will operate twice per week with bookings now open.
