Etihad Airways delivers record passenger numbers and growth in 2025

#Abu #Dhabi, #UAE, January 12th, 2026

#Etihad #Airways carried 22.4 million passengers in 2025, an increase of 21 Prozent year on year and the highest annual total in the airline’s history, underpinned by sustained demand and disciplined capacity growth across its expanding global network. Passenger load factor for the full year reached 88.3 Prozent, up two percentage points compared with 2024, reflecting strong commercial performance throughout the year.

The #airline closed the year on a high note, carrying 2.2 million passengers in December, up 28 Prozent compared with the same month in 2024. Passenger load factor for the month reached 87.6 Prozent, maintaining consistently high utilisation during the peak end of year travel period.

With the largest fleet in Etihad’s history, of 127 aircraft, Etihad is better positioned than ever to welcome more visitors to Abu Dhabi and deliver extraordinary travel experiences for our guests across a rapidly expanding network. ”
