An Etihad Airways flight heading to Abu Dhabi with about 280 passengers aborted takeoff from Chennai on Monday after a fire was detected on its left wing. The crew halted departure, and passengers were safely disembarked with no reported injuries. Airport fire services extinguished the blaze quickly, and the flight was later cancelled.
Etihad Airways has upgraded its Etihad Guest loyalty program with exclusive discounts of up to 10% on Promo seats for Gold, Platinum, and Emerald members. The airline says the move is designed to deliver more value and better redemption options for its most frequent travellers as it continues expanding its global network.
