While Etihad's prices are often quite low, so is the quality of their product. They didn't just save money by reducing the quality of the meals, but also by simply reducing the size of the meals altogether!

If this is the current standard of Etihad in its economy class, I realize that it has dropped a lot: in 2014 I traveled from Guarulhos to Abu-Dhabi and Bangkog-Abu-Dhabi and I remember very well that the cutlery was made of stainless steel and the glasses were made of glass! Also the presentation of the lunch tray (and other meals) was more abundant.

I have never flown with Etihad but have flown with Emirates many times, on the San Francisco Dubai Mumbai route and I vouch for Emirates. It never disappoints. The planes are always the new Airbus A 380 which are quieter. And more to the point, Emirates serve three full meals during a sixteen hour flight to Dubai, without charging extra. The only inconvenience is the near 5pm departure time from SFO and near 5am from Mumbai. But the rest is flawless. On my last flight I got a free upgrade to Business class and it was like heaven.

Here what I do, ask for more. Second time. And surprisingly they will bring you. And my favourite way, go to the galley and chit chat. They also like a passnger is appreciating their job. And have nice time enjoying Business class food. Yes they can bring anything anywhere. And if you are lucky, you may cross path with cabin crew head. PS: From my experiences.

Nothing new, it's I'm reverse because the stars have to be in front. You can see this for example also on the cars of F1 Team Haas.

I flew Etihad's A340-600 from KWI to AUH back in 2008 when I was in the military on combat leave, and it was a great experience. It was a free for all, and I had an entire row to myself across the entire cabin (20% load factor) I thought at the time that an A321 would've made a lot more sense for that particular flight, but it seems that wastefulness caught up to them eventually.

Having used both Emirates & Qatar on long haul recently I've often wondered about Etihad. Tbf, based on this I'll not be using them anytime soon. It didn't look *terrible*, just very, very basic for long haul on a middle eastern carrier. I'd say in Economy Gulf & Oman have overtaken them in terms of quality & service lately?

bandar bhai as of now, this economy product is only on the 777. The Dreamliner and A380s have the new cabin product which is far more superior in my opinion. Look it up

if you are visiting southeast asia. I challenge you to fly with Garuda Indonesia with their Neo A330 from Denpasar (DPS) -Medan (KNO) -london (LHR).by using their super diamond suits and I'm sure they will not disappoint you with their seat and also the food.
