Announcement comes less than four months after UAE carrier began serving Rajasthan capital
Etihad Airways will increase its flight services between Abu Dhabi, UAE and Jaipur, Rajasthan, India to 10 a week.
Commencing on 15 December 2024, flights will be operated with aircraft from the Airbus A320 family.
The announcement comes less than four months after the UAE flagship carrier began serving Rajasthan's capital city.
Known as the 'Pink City' due to its rosy architecture, Jaipur is home to a stately street grid and colonnaded City Palace complex. The new flight routes will support tourism in both historic Jaipur and the UAE, as well as offering India's outbound market connecting flights to Etihad's network of destinations via Abu Dhabi.

Guests flying from Jaipur to the US can take advantage of the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) facility at Abu Dhabi, streamlining the immigration process.
The increase in the Jaipur frequency further highlights Etihad's commitment to the Indian market, where the airline has increased its capacity by more than a third over the past 12 months and recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of its first service to the subcontinent.
Etihad’s Chief Revenue and Commercial Officer, Arik De, said: "This expansion gives Indian travellers easy access to Abu Dhabi and Dubai, while offering smooth connections to our global network, all with the promise of an exceptional flying experience."
