Just like Emirates and Qatar Airways, Etihad Airways is also taking advantage of its favorable geographical location and the oil billions as a state-owned company to offer connecting flights between Europe, Asia, and Oceania via its hub in Abu Dhabi.
Although Etihad Airways is not a member of any of the three major airline alliances, it established its airline alliance in 2014, Etihad Airways Partners.
