Cons: In food and comfort
Pros: Good
Cons: Food you have made batter next time please
Pros: Everything was great.
Everything was good beyond my expectations and this is too much.. This makes experience simply unforgettable!!
For example they have on board air-hostess specialized to deal and play with kids, even with another uniform!! Wooow !! And she was doing great with my 3-year old daughter.
Cons: Catering !!!!!!
Meals need to be upgraded internationally to fit all tastes !! Travelers on board on route AUH-LAX are not all from Gulf or India or far Asia.
Actually the majority are either from Middle East including Arabian Gulf counties and from United States. But menu on board is always splitted into two choices: One choice fits all and another fits only Indians !!!
This would be a great favor if we are on board an Indian airliner, but not for Al-Etihad Airways !!
And this is a true problem because any passenger from Middle East or Europe or America CAN NEVER eat that Indian meals which was served on board !! I’m a doctor.. You will have a diarrhea straight forward for the rest of the flight. It’’s hot spices mixed with anything pasta or chicken or vegetables and that’s it. That maybe so much tasty for certain group of people but in a restaurant not on board a flight on air. They are blocking passengers’ choices in food in the other option whatever it is. And situation may got worse if the only other option is for instance is meat because my wife doesn’t eat meat (she’s exceptional.. That’s right) but then she poorly can not eat any meal on board this flight and has to wait for the second meal after another 6 hours. Maybe she will be lucky and she can eat the only second available option for all because we all can not eat the first choice meal which is a must to be Indian. And here I’m specifying it. It’s Indian, not vegetarian meal. Vegetarian meal would be a nice choice acceptable to try for anyone.
This must be considered!!!
Passengers have nothing to eat except what air-hosts serve them for 16 hours !!
So Al-Etihad should kindly know that not half of its passengers on board are Indians. And even Indian passengers they eat our middle east dishes and they find all tasty !
Thanks
Appreciate this opportunity

Cons: Slight inconvenience having to wait for a connecting flight, which delayed our arrival plans at the destination....
Cons: 1. The crew from Abu Dhabi to Belgrade was appalling. As we touched down at Belgrade Tesla airport, and were still taxiing, many passengers stood up, opened up the overhead compartments, took out their carry-on bags (some were pretty big hard top) and left it on the aisle. The overhead compartment doors were left open and once or twice the crew at the back murmured them to sit on their seats and strap themselves. But neither did the crew come up to severely reprimand them nor did the passengers seem to care. IT WAS THE MOST SHOCKING EXPERIENCE in my over 25 years of flying. Terrible service on part of Etihad Crew.
2. We'd just an hour's transit in Abu Dhabi airport and there were numerous passengers still trying to disembark from the Kochi-Abu Dhabi flight, pass through security checks, walk quite a distance to the gate and then get on to the bus to board the aircraft. Strangely there was no Etihad personnel helping us to navigate through this absolute chaos. Many people, young and old, were literally running with their bags. Some of us yelled that we'd a short connection and then one of the ground staff tried to make way for us to navigate through the huge queues waiting for security. This process could've been managed infinitely better. Just imagine if there were elderly passengers or little children?
3. Food was terrible. I'm a vegetarian and usually Asian vegetarian is reasonably good. In this case the rice was poorly cooked (grainy), lacked any variety (anybody who's familiar with Asian food can assure you that there're amazingly tasty and healthy vegetarian dishes that can be prepared - if Etihad needs help they're welcome to contact me). I'm surprised by all this.
Try Emirates and one can see the quality of the food.
4. We'd to collect our boarding passes at Belgrade airport. We've a carte de legitimation (CDL) residence card for Switzerland but it seemed obvious that the ground staff at Belgrade have no clue what a Swiss CDL looks like. My wife who's a South African national cannot obviously enter Switzerland without a visa but the CDL is a legitimate document and that should have been it. Further we'd been checked in from Kochi to Zurich (and our bags had been checked through to ZRH). It's obvious that Belgrade staff are poorly trained and it caused unnecessary waiting time (nearly 30 minutes) and senior staff had to be summoned to clarify.
I'm terribly disappointed with the overall service of Etihad. I'll never fly through Belgrade for sure. It's horrible and the travel desk were not particularly helpful. In fact I'm considering never to fly Etihad again.
Pros: Amazing crew and excellent food and beverage choices
Pros: Very unprofessional crew, particularly Katarina who had quite an attitude and twice left out the last four rows for drinks and coffee. Simply out of laziness.
Cons: Online check-in had website issues and did not allow seat selection. Web check-in and on board service need significant improvements. Would not fly Etihad again; much higher standards and better service with Emirates or Qatar Air.
Pros: Ok
Cons: Comfort
Pros: Ok
Cons: Comfortable
Pros: The crew was amazing!
Pros: Crew was amazing. Service is top notch. You get to eat whatever you want whenever you want (no fixed time for menu serving).
Cons: The in flight internet should be of better value for business travelers. Emirates offers full flight connection for business and first class.
Pros: comfortable
Cons: More entertainment and food options. Service not in line with price charged for the flight
Cons: Caboj crew were unfriendly and bordering on being rude. The basic rule of any service is to smile but when you've cabin staff whi look grumpy on a 7h flight that speaks of poor training of cabin staff. Etihad needs to do much better to retain customers on this hot segment.
Pros: Crew were responsive. 787 has more legroom & better recliner, window shading was amazing
Cons: Vegetarian food quality needs improvement
Pros: Seat was not super comfortable. Crew was excellent.
Cons: There was no online checkin or any ability to choose seats on your app.
Pros: Nothing
Cons: The seat were not adjustable and the snake were poor and no entertainment on board ... poor boarding with buses and arrived with buses
Pros: The seat 21A was absolutely horrid inducing claustrophobia due to limited space all around on a full flight long delayed on ground after taxiing for departure.
Cons: Etihad needs to be more sensitive of passenger comfort and avoid being so stingy with economy class seats (21A)
Cons: The seat was not comfortable in the flight from Toronto to Abu Dhabi. I was served wrong food. The food was tasteless. The crew was giving on half glass of water when asked for. It felt as if they were scared to give water to drink
Pros: Everything
Pros: Seat spacing, food, crew
Everything
Cons: Missing a bag , longer wait time at Abu Dhabi
Pros: Crew and seats
Cons: Sound system,, entertainment system should not be turned off 25min before landing
Cons: The Seats were really old and no new movies
Cons: Sure
Pros: I slept.
Food was fine even though I forgot to order vegetarian.
Movie selection seemed extensive too.
Cons: No a lot.
Pros: The crew was sufficient and polite. Seats are average. Food was extremely limited. Underwhelmed but, frankly, exhausted with the process of trying to get out.
Cons: Communication of flight departure time was not provided causing us to miss our flight and requiring over 2 hours on a cell call to Bangladesh to book a 24 hr delay which was further confused by computer glitches. Poor customer service at the flight checkin desk in Kathmandu who are, apparently, limited in what they can assist with.
