Etihad is running a 2-4-1 sale at the moment which continues until tomorrow night.
You can travel until 30th November.
Deals are available in all classes and include (per person, based on two travelling in Business Class):
- Abu Dhabi £1,506
- Bangkok £1,533
- Singapore £1,765
- Hong Kong £1,737
- Phuket £1,734
- Seychelles £2,111
Availability seems OK. Even over October half-term (out 25/10, back 3/11) I could find Abu Dhabi at £1,572. Remember that you need to search for 2+ passengers and that the price shown by the Etihad website is for all of you, not per person. I was confused by that at first ….
My review of the impressive Business Studio seat on the A380, which is what you will get flying from Heathrow, is here and is pictured above. There is also a dedicated page on their website here which explains it in more detail.
Your best option to maximise your miles when paying is American Express Preferred Rewards Gold. This offers double points – 2 per £1 – when you when you book flight tickets directly with an airline. Our review of Amex Gold is here.
