Etihad Airlines are spreading the word over Twitter of their relaunch of scheduled flights serving 20 cities across Europe, Asia and Australia starting 10 June.  The South-East Asian cities are Singapore, Manila, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur.

As with Emirates, I think this is more of a planning/marketing excercise than it is a real re-start. Many of the countries listed either still have their borders closed or have imposed quarantine stipulations.

 

For example, as far as I know, Singapore is still closed and Australia has a 14 day quarantine in place. With Australia, maybe they are 'testing the water' to see how many people are prepared to accept the quarantine requirement?

Australia is still closed too. 14 day quarrantine is for returning citizens and permanent residents or those permitted to enter on compassionate grounds. I think it would be unlikely that they will open the international borders here except for NZ and the pacific Islands this year.

I think Man City have a game in a couple of weeks as well.
