Airlaza is not Etihad Airways
We are an independent IATA-accredited agency that sells Etihad Airways tickets. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by Etihad Airways.
If you need the airline's own customer service — for a booking made directly with them — contact Etihad Airways through its official website. If Airlaza issued your ticket, contact us and we will deal with the airline for you.
Frequently asked
What is The Residence on Etihad?
It is a three-room private suite on the A380 with a living area, bedroom and shower, sold as a single unit rather than per seat. It flies on a very small number of routes and needs to be booked well ahead.
Does Etihad offer premium economy?
Etihad's premium cabins are Business and First. If premium economy is what you are after on a route Etihad serves, we will quote it on a partner or alternative carrier alongside the Etihad option.
What is the difference between First Apartments and standard First?
First Apartments are the A380 product, with a separate armchair and bed within an enclosed space. On other aircraft the First product is a more conventional suite. Because it is aircraft-dependent, we confirm which one operates your flight.
How do I contact Etihad Airways directly?
For a booking you made directly with the airline, use the official contact channels on the Etihad Airways website. Airlaza is an independent agency and cannot act as Etihad Airways customer service. If Airlaza issued your ticket, contact us instead — changes, refunds and schedule disruptions on our tickets are handled by us with the airline on your behalf.
Why book Etihad Airways through Airlaza rather than direct?
Two reasons, and neither is a secret discount. Agencies hold contracted premium-cabin fares that are not published on airline websites, so on some routes the same seat prices differently. And on complex itineraries — multi-city, mixed carriers, or ten or more passengers — routing done by hand generally beats a search box. If the airline's own price is better, we will tell you.
