Travellers who pack light can take advantage of discounted Etihad Airways flights from Abu Dhabi to Kuwait and Bahrain this winter.
The airline will trial reduced fares on two routes for Economy Class passengers who do not have checked luggage. Passengers can take a complimentary carry-on luggage of 7kg.
“Passenger feedback and travel habits show that many of Etihad Airways’ customers, especially those travelling for business, weekend getaways or day trips, don’t require checked baggage, so we are testing a new lower fare on these key routes,” said Mohammad Al Bulook, the Etihad Airways executive vice president of commercial. “As well as a great proposition for customers, this trial is an effective tool for gauging customer reaction in the real world and testing the product’s viability for wider implementation.”
Passengers must book between October 18 to December 18 and travel before April 2018.
