Etihad Airways is doing discounts on flights for India Independence Day 2025
Etihad Airways is marking India's Independence Day with a wallet-friendly flash sale – and we're talking up to 30 percent off flights to some of the most exciting cities in the US and Europe.
The airline operates out of Zayed International Airport in Abu Dhabi but Dubai-based travellers can get a free shuttle bus at Al Wasl Centre behind the Safestway Supermarket when flying with Etihad.
Where can you go? For starters, Chicago from Dhs3,273, Washington DC from Dhs3,149 and Toronto from Dhs3,599 in Economy.
If you prefer a European getaway, you could be strolling Barcelona's Gothic Quarter from Dhs2,036, sipping Irish drinks in Dublin from Dhs2,149, or wandering Prague's cobbled streets without completely emptying your savings.
Other cities on sale include Brussels, Paris, Madrid, Rome, Munich, Frankfurt, Warsaw, Boston, New York, Sochi and Atlanta – so if you've got a dream destination list, there's a good chance it's on there.
The only catch is that you have got to move quickly.
Book by Thursday August 15 for travel between September 2025 and March 2026.
And yes, that means winter getaways, autumn escapes and maybe even a cheeky early spring break are all on the table.

Tui cheers profit jump despite pressure from heat waves and Middle East conflict
Bosses at the firm stressed that the group has been boosted by its recent growth strategy. The German-based tour operator saw profits surpass expectations after positive trading from its cruises and experiences operations. The update came a day after the company upgraded its financial forecasts for the current year. Tui Group chief executive Sebastian Ebel said: 'The third quarter and the first nine months of the financial year 2025 were strong. Our strategy is paying off. 'We are benefiting from our integrated and diversified business model and managed to reduce the group's seasonality further. 'All this in a continuing challenging environment for our markets and airlines segment with economic difficulties in Europe, Europe-wide heat waves in the summer and the conflict in the Middle East.' The company said summer bookings in its markets and airlines business are down 2% year-on-year. Tui said this has been driven by a continued trend towards late bookings, citing 'the impact of the June and July heat waves in our source markets, as well as the Middle East conflict'. But it highlighted a 'positive start' to bookings for the winter season. It came as Tui cheered record underlying earnings for the quarter to June 30, rising to 321 million euros (£278 million) from 232 million euros (£201 million) a year earlier. This was supported by a 56.2% jump in earnings from its cruises business, which was buoyed by the launch of two new cruise ships and strong trading conditions. Meanwhile, earnings in its Tui Musement activities and experiences business were up 6.8% for the quarter. The company said total underlying earnings are now on track to grow by between 9% and 11% this year. It previously forecast growth of between 7% and 10%. Tui told shareholders that total group revenues increased by 7.1% to 6.2 billion euros (£5.4 billion) for the quarter, amid growth in both volumes and prices.
