What happened

Etihad Airways has updated its flexible rebooking and cancellation policies with two key components: 1. Flexible Rebooking & Refund (Tickets issued on or before Feb 28, 2026): - Travelers with original travel dates between Feb 28 and April 15, 2026, can rebook or request a refund free of charge. - The rebooking window has been extended to June 15, 2026 (previously May 15). - Rebooking to flights after June 15 may incur charges. - From April 16, 2026, this flexible cancellation policy ends, but free changes (subject to fare difference) remain for those who booked Etihad flights from March 6. 2. No Change Fee Initiative (Tickets issued on or after March 6, 2026): - A 'no change fee' offer applies across all Etihad Airways fare brands. - Valid for travel until March 31, 2027. - Travelers can change travel dates without paying a change fee, though fare differences apply if repriced at current fares. Note: Self-service rebooking is available via etihad.com/manage or the Etihad app. Elite tier qualification/requalification requirements have also been reduced by 25% until March 31, 2027
