Etihad Airways increases Minsk service to daily and signs codeshare with Belavia

Etihad Airways will increase its Abu Dhabi-Minsk service from three flights per week to a daily schedule from June 15, 2013. The carrier will also now offer onward connections from Minsk to the cities of Kiev, Moscow and Saint Petersburg through a new codeshare agreement with Belavia, Belarus’ national airline. The codeshare agreement will in turn see Belavia placing its B2 flight code on Etihad Airways’ flights from Minsk to Abu Dhabi, and onwards to Ho Chi Minh City, Melbourne and Sydney. The direct daily services, combined with codeshare connectivity, supports the growth in demand from business and leisure travellers,
