World welcomes China's resumption of outbound tourism

Etihad Airways is set to strengthen air connectivity between the UAE and China. "Etihad Airways is delighted to add a second weekly passenger service to Shanghai following the further relaxation of COVID-related travel measures," said Martin Drew, senior vice-president of Global Sales & Cargo at Etihad Aviation Group.

Combined with a weekly service to Beijing and a twice-weekly service to Guangzhou, this will provide travelers with five weekly nonstop flights between Abu Dhabi and China.
