Etihad Airways has announced the launch of daily flights from Abu Dhabi to Taipei, set to commence on September 7, 2025. The announcement was made via an X post on April 7.

According to Etihad Airways, this new route is part of the airline's strategy to expand its network and strengthen business and tourism ties between the United Arab Emirates and Taiwan. The initiative reflects Etihad's commitment to enhancing global connectivity.

In 2023, Taiwan saw approximately 5.1 million foreign visitor arrivals, indicating a significant recovery in international tourism. This resurgence highlights Taiwan's growing appeal as a travel destination and the increasing demand for enhanced air connectivity. Etihad's new route aligns with this trend, offering travelers more options to explore Taiwan's cultural and natural attractions.
