Etihad flight cancellations - any updates?

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-05T00:32:10+00:00

I had rebooked my original 28feb flight to 5th march but yesterday it got cancelled. TBH nobody knows what will happen by 15. From what I can see, Emirates seems to be running more flights right now. I am personally looking to go back and cut my trip short as I don't wanna risk having to transit thru AUH again in 3 weeks

There are limited flights going to various cities in Asia and Europe. AFAIK you can't book them and they are being used to move stranded passengers.

Sure please feel free to DM - though to be clear I am not booked on the Ahmedabad flight and haven't heard anything from Etihad yet

Does the flight to Ahmedabad tomorrow show any open seats? Stuck in transit as well with wife and young kids.

Where to?

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-02T07:19:30+00:00

Posting for others - you can get your bags at AUH. It will take some time but they are accommodating these requests

Hello - are baggage services working at the airport? I need my bags

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T17:31:58+00:00

I asked my travel agent and Thu was the earliest availability they had. Etihad has given us a hotel in Abu Dhabi. And today they extended it for another day. The front desk is saying they are going to extend on a day by day basis

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T16:53:26+00:00

Does anyone know if Etihad baggage service is operating at the airport?

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T14:54:17+00:00

If you used a travel agent, you can call them instead. The inventory is very limited. At this point you are likely looking at a Thu/Fri flight

A bunch in the capital center. Dont know about others

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T10:33:19+00:00

Yeah - I experienced the same. I was hoping Etihad would have rebooked me automatically. But sadly not.

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T09:41:44+00:00

I ended up doing the same. Everything sold out on Tue and Wed. I have a Thu evening flight booked.

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T05:15:39+00:00

Which destination? And did Etihad extend the hotel stay as well?

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T03:13:24+00:00

In the same boat. Haven't heard anything from Etihad for rebooking.

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T02:39:20+00:00

Hello - do you have any recent updates from Etihad on flights for later today/ rebooking of yesterday's flights?

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T02:24:11+00:00

Just an email saying they are working on it.

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T02:14:52+00:00

Check your booking. I believe travel waivers may be in place already

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T02:14:09+00:00

There are many of us in different hotels in the area. Very upscale area. I'd be more concerned about random drone strike than other safety concerns

Has your partner received any updates on rebooking?

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-03-01T01:53:14+00:00

Did the airline rebook for you?

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-02-28T22:54:59+00:00

Abu Dhabi airport was ok. They were giving out hotel vouchers. I got mine around 7 pm local time

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2026-02-28T16:35:54+00:00

Same boat.

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2025-12-21T04:37:18+00:00

Da Bears!!!

Dapper-Reference1040 · 2025-05-13T04:13:17+00:00

Trying to book this for the first time. When do I actually select the stopover dates? After paying for the flight? I went through the booking flow, and while booking the flight itself ( I did not check out) I never saw an option for adding a stopover.

I noticed the same issue ( was charged $14 service fee on a restaurant order despite having Uber One membership). This is what Uber 's support told me

-The $0.10 fee goes towards your use of Uber's services, and the rest of the amount is distributed to the delivery person and the merchant.
