Abu Dhabi Airports Company today announced that the timetable for the period November 2011 – March 2012 at Abu Dhabi International Airport presents an 8% increase in the total weekly aircraft movements compared with last year’s winter schedule.
The new enriched schedule is a result of the joint efforts of Abu Dhabi Airports Company and its airline partners to offer efficient and quality services to all travellers from the Capital’s airport through a wide selection of flights and frequencies with enhanced global connectivity. This development comes as the airport prepares for the peak travel season during the months of October to January as Abu Dhabi hosts major international and local events including the 2011 Formula One Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in November, along with this season’s holidays of Eid Al Adha and Hajj.
The 2011-2012 winter timetable includes amongst others, Etihad Airways new destinations to Chengdu, Dusseldorf, Male and the Seychelles as well as additional frequencies, as well as Air India Express, Yemenia Airways and Saudi Arabian increased frequencies within their network. Moreover Singapore Airways and Lufthansa have optimised their schedules, while another significant contributor to this growth, are the newly-welcomed in 2011 VAustralia, Cathay Pacific and Czech Airlines.
Eng. Ahmad Al Haddabi, Chief Operating Officer, Abu Dhabi Airports Company, said:
