Etihad Dumps Lgw

[tolsti]

From 21st March Etihad is transferring its LGW departures to Heathrow. They are offering refunds to clients who wish their money back and a coach transfer from LGW to LHR for those who don't wish to make make their own way.

The LGW timings were perfect with a breakfast time arrival in BKK... now you arrrive at Happy Hour the day before.

Etihad have suspended services into Gatwick awaiting new aircraft delivery.

If you put forward dates into Etihad reservations youll see GTW resume flights in the near future.

Looks like it see Etihad Airways If you try to book a flight on those days it only allows LHR as a London departure

Looking at the load-factors on AUH-LGW, on the 3 times I flew this route last year, this cannot come as a suprise.

Hopefully they might put on a smaller A330 a few times per week - rather than the massively-too-large B777-300 - and continue to serve the route again, as LHR is worth avoiding whenever possible, and the LGW early-morning departure-time is also quite convenient to me personally.

Hope you are right, As far as I am concerned LHR should be avoided like the plague.
