Etihad Airways Cabin Classes
From a well-equipped Economy through to the private Business Studio suite — and, on its A380 flagships, the legendary Residence — Etihad's cabins are among the most acclaimed in the sky.
Economy Class
A comfortable seat with up to 32" of pitch, the E-Box in-flight entertainment system, and complimentary meals and drinks — with the warm hospitality Etihad is known for.
Economy Space
Extra legroom (up to 38") in a dedicated section of the Economy cabin — a good-value step up for taller travellers or anyone wanting more room on a long flight, with the same meals and service as Economy.
Business Studio
A fully flat-bed suite in a 1-2-1 layout with direct aisle access, a large personal screen and gourmet dining — and, on Etihad's newest A350 aircraft, a private suite with a sliding door.
The Residence (A380)
Etihad's flagship, and the world's only three-room suite on a commercial aircraft: a private bedroom with a double bed, a separate living room with a full-size sofa, and an ensuite bathroom with shower — plus a dedicated butler throughout the flight.
