Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of Etihad Airways, has expanded its winter schedule to “significantly increase belly-hold cargo capacity and enhance connectivity across its global network.” The updated new schedule will see the cargo carrier offer services to African destinations: Addis Ababa and Algiers.
The airlines said: “Between November 2025 and March 2026, Etihad Airways will progressively launch services to 16 new destinations, including Addis Ababa, Algiers, Almaty, Baku, Bucharest, Chiang Mai, Kazan, Krabi, Medan, Medina, Phnom Penh, Tashkent, Tbilisi and Yerevan.”
The updated schedule introduces new routes to Hanoi, Hong Kong and Taipei, strengthening the carrier’s operations in Asia and providing greater access to some of the world’s fastest-growing cargo markets.
Stanislas Brun, Chief Cargo Officer, Etihad Cargo, said: “This expanded winter schedule offers greater access to Etihad Cargo’s global network, providing more capacity, flexibility and reliable connections.”
The expanded winter schedule underscores Etihad Cargo’s role in driving trade flows between Abu Dhabi and key international markets. With increased frequencies and new destinations, the carrier is poised to support industries that depend on fast, reliable and efficient cargo services.
“By October 2025”, Etihad Cargo, says it “will provide belly-hold capacity on over 880 passenger flights each week, rising to more than 1,000 flights weekly by March 2026, further strengthening global connectivity and customer choice.”
