“Our return to Kolkata takes place at the same time as our twice-daily flights to New York, providing better access between India and the US via Abu Dhabi, and our guests can utilize our US pre-clearance facility to arrive seamlessly across the state, said Martin Drew, Etihad’s Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Cargo.

Last week, low-cost carrier Air Arabia launched a service between Kolkata and Abu Dhabi, flying three days a week. It also operates an Airbus A320.

Etihad Airways has suspended services between Kolkata and Abu Dhabi following the outbreak of COVID-19.

Kolkata has direct flights to Dubai and Doha, two other West Asian destinations.
