Etihad Airways Sets Record Three Years in a Row

Thursday, January 11, 2007

A fleet of new aircraft, 16 new routes and the accolade of world's leading new airline for the third year running has made 2006 a landmark year for Etihad Airways.

The Abu Dhabi-based UAE national airline continued to achieve strong growth in 2006. Last year alone, the airline launched 16 new international destinations, which included New York, Paris, Casablanca, Khartoum and Jakarta, in additional to their routes to Islamabad, Lahore, Peshawar, Manchester, Doha, Jeddah, Muscat, Kuwait, Tehran, Dhaka and Manila. Currently 80 percent of Etihad's fleet is new. The airline has placed a record USD8 billion order for 29 new Airbus and Boeing aircraft.

In the two years I spent at Phoenix East Aviation, I had the chance to meet an incredible number of dedicated professionals, who literally went out of their way to assure some of the best initial training one can get. The instructors I had -- and later on the students I taught myself -- have since all  had successful aviation careers throughout the world. My experience training pilots from different backgrounds, and my actual line flying on the Saab 340, Saab 2000 and B-737 brought me to the conclusion that initial training quality is greatly important for being able to perform in the demanding environment of airline flying. It is precisely for that quality of training and for the airline-oriented approach that I warmly recommend Phoenix East Aviation as an excellent coice for people choosing to have an airline career later on.
