From 3 November 2014 the airline will be flying to Vienna twice a day. As of 26 October 2014, it will also be doubling the number of flights to Zurich to two a day. The new flights are currently being coordinated and will be bookable soon.

From 26 October, Etihad Regional will be setting off in Dresden at 6.35 a.m. and 5.30 p.m. every day, arriving in Zurich at 8.15 a.m. and 7.10 p.m. On the trip to Dresden, the aircraft (also a 68-seat ATR-72) takes off at 9.10 a.m. and 8.40 p.m. in the Swiss metropolis, landing in Dresden at 10.50 a.m. and 10.20 p.m.

Markus Kopp, managing director of Mitteldeutsche Airport Holding:

The airline is already successfully operating between our sister airport in Leipzig/Halle and Amsterdam, Geneva, Paris and Zurich. Now Dresden will be benefiting from this cooperation”, explains Knopp.
