When absolutely everyone else was gushing and singing the praises of the First Class suite you rightly showed that you could have the nicest seat with the nicest food but if it wasn't matched with friendly staff you would still be uncomfortable.

In regards to your comment at the end about Abu Dhabi Airport, it's a frustration we all share BUT it's been announced that the Midfield Terminal will finally open this year on December 2, UAE National Day.

I flew the Etihad A350 between Heathrow and Abu Dhabi. They’re a good airline but the only think I encountered that was super bad, was customer service. They kept telling us to look up phone numbers, such as to the lounge, instead of telling us as a customer service person would do. So I was a bit confused by that.

I flew on the Etihad 787-9 in business class from Washington Dulles to Abu Dhabi, and I have to say, my flight attendant was amazing! She checked on me nearly every hour throughout the flight, and business class was full. True, perhaps compared to Qsuite or an Emirates A380 business class, Etihad would be third, but it's still a very good product. Their economy class, however, not so much.

Etihad generally costs 1.5-2x of what emirates does. A business class return ticket from Karachi to london is 80% more expensive via etihad. After your review, I am confident that it’s not worth it at all, especially since one leg of the flight is in a very very old plane where the seat doesn’t even become a flat bed. The service is doesn’t seem to be any better than that on any other gulf airline either. Qatar>emirates>etihad

i just spent 20 hours in etihad business clas from london to manila via abu dhabi. couldnt sleep a wink. they claim "flat beds" but they are inclined and bumpy (painfully intrusive headrest), and narrow. i complained politely to the staff, who were very good and they said they'd fix it with a mattress. so they put a foam rubber thing on it and now it was an inclined bumpy non-flat plinth with a mattress on it. there was no "recline"option. you either sit bolt upright or you try to recline it but it pushes the base forward obliterating your legroom and it only reclines a bit cos you need to do the "flat bed" option or nothing. but there is no flat bed. it was torture like a stasi prison stress position for 20 hours. i even asked if there was a spare seat in the economy section cos at least economy seats recline. i've flown business class long haul hundreds of times with different airlines and these seats were the worst. great food and staff but awful seat design. if you are taller than a midget you wont fit your feet into the footwell so you'll press against it the whole time. i'm 6'2"

I had been flown with Etihad first suite several times in the past years but the latest experience (July 2016) let me hesitate flying with them. I was in First Suite on A380 from Abu Dhabi to Sydney. It was a total 13 hours flight but I couldn’t sleep a bit as the gentleman sat beside my suite snoring extremely loud all the way thru the flight (most suites have really bad sound insulation as the partition in between is not all the way up). I put on the noise cancellation earmuffs still can hear clearly. So I asked the flight attendant whether he could resolve the issue. He told me that’s nothing he can do, I just needed to tolerate it. However after I came back to Australia, I asked my friend who was a flight attendant in the first class, she told me that for experienced flight attendants, they usually wake up the passenger who snores and ask whether he needs some drinks. If the snoring still continues, they would let the snoring passenger know the truth, as other passengers pay such top price as well, shouldn’t tolerate it at all. But those methods Etihad steward dared not to try at all. I wrote an email to Etihad and ask what would they do if it happens again when I fly again with them, they never reply. So I haven’t flown with them since.

Just flown Manchester to Osaka via Abu Dhabi on Etihad. Really happy with the service, particularly on both legs to and from Osaka. The first 3 flights on the 787 were great, but the final leg back fom Abu Dhabi to Manchester was appalling on the 777. It was like stepping back in time 20 years. Nowhere to store anything, not even a bottle of water. The seat was so narrow and the bed was too short, and such a contrast to the seats on the 787. How can Etihad still fly with this seat?

I agree with the conclusion 100%. Etihad comes across as a slightly above average european airline, still has a lot to learn from the airlines in the region. I just used them for a connecting return flight, and I must say I wasn’t impressed. I flew business and economy, and to my surprise the crew weren’t friendly and “smiles were hard to get by” regardless where I was sitting. It feels to me that everybody who works in Etihad isn’t happy, including ground staff. Also, We were delayed in 3 out of 4 flights. I flew business with Oman air last year, although they’re a bit rough around the edges and some more training would be good thing, the crew were friendly which more than made up for some lapses in service (at least for me that’s what I focus on, a friendly service)
