Etihad Airways has extended the suspension of flights between Abu Dhabi and two major Saudi Arabian cities, Dammam and Riyadh, until November 19, amid ongoing regional disruption. All passenger and cargo flights on both routes remain cancelled through that date.

Passengers booked on these services should contact the airline for information about alternative travel arrangements, rebooking and refunds.

However, Etihad is preparing to resume selected services between Abu Dhabi and Jeddah from November 6. Four flights are scheduled to resume: EY601 and EY603 (Abu Dhabi to Jeddah) and EY602 and EY604 (Jeddah to Abu Dhabi). All other flights between Abu Dhabi and Jeddah will continue to operate as scheduled.

Etihad has cautioned that the situation remains dynamic and further changes to its flight schedule are possible. Passengers should check their flight status on the airline's official website at etihad.com before travelling.
