Etihad Airways, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, has welcomed the latest addition to its expanding fleet as a new Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner landed at Abu Dhabi International Airport on Friday, October 13, 2023.

After a thorough check by Etihad’s engineering team, the new arrival will go straight into service and is set to start flying guests from October 15, 2023.

This aircraft, and the three Dreamliner 787-9s following shortly, are up to 25 per cent more fuel efficient than many comparable aircraft of their size.

The arrival comes exactly three years to the day since Etihad took delivery of its last Boeing 787-10 on October 13, 2020.
