Etihad Cargo, the logistics and freight division of Etihad Airways, has unveiled an expanded winter schedule aimed at boosting belly-hold cargo capacity and strengthening global connectivity.

The revised timetable introduces new services to Hanoi, Hong Kong, and Taipei, further consolidating the carrier’s footprint in Asia and opening access to high-growth cargo markets. In addition, Etihad Airways will roll out flights to 16 destinations between November 2025 and March 2026, including Addis Ababa, Algiers, Almaty, Baku, Bucharest, Chiang Mai, Kazan, Krabi, Medan, Medina, Phnom Penh, Tashkent, Tbilisi, and Yerevan.

Access to global network

Stanislas Brun, Chief Cargo Officer at Etihad Cargo, said the expansion underscores the company’s commitment to customer-centric solutions. “This winter schedule provides broader access to our global network, delivering more capacity, flexibility, and reliable connections. Whether for intercontinental trade or fast regional deliveries, we remain dedicated to enabling industries with world-class cargo services,” he stated.

By October 2025, Etihad Cargo will operate with belly-hold space on more than 880 weekly passenger flights. That figure is expected to rise above 1,000 by March 2026, significantly enhancing shipping options for customers worldwide.
