Gatwick and Etihad are they No more


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys.

Been looking at flights to Bangkok and was amazed there are no more flights from

Gatwick with Etihad is this true, not heard or seen anything about them stopping

there flights from Gatwick anyone no why they have stopped.

 

Do know they are much more expensive these days and the cheap days almost

gone but i have used them last 4 times and no problems and only short stop

overs. It is so sad if they have finished out of Gatwick.

They ceased the LGW schedule and went double daily with the LHR schedule when they announced their summer timetable.

 

They still have offers under 400 quid incl after 16 April so I'm not sure aout them being more expensive.

Tom,

 

 

 

I'm looking for a late June departure for a couple of weeks and the cheapest I can find on the Etihad site is £676 return. Bloody expensive! Any idea where to find the cheap flights?

Not sure where these cheap Etihad flights are from April 16th, wanted to book

from 3rd May to 24th May and was quoted £590 with Etihad.

Yet flying non stop with Eva or Thai same dates is £470.

Yes rains very sad. Departures last 15 times with them from new departure gate, never more than quarter full even on Saturdays. But I know a bunch of golfer types from around Croydon who would still prefer to pay another £50 for a visit and queue to Heathrow than admit to taking a flight with a plane change to their friends for fear of being laughed at. :bigsmile:

Might be sad and unfortunate for Gatwick lovers, but if the plane was a quarter full at best on 15 outbound sectors, than its only surprising Etihad didnt pull the plug earlier.
