Saudi: Etihad to resume flights to Madina in November
Etihad Airways has announced the resumption of flights to Madina from November 27, 2021. Madina will be served three times a week from Abu Dhabi using Airbus A321.
Saudi Arabia’s two Holy Mosques in Makkah and Madina allow full-capacity attendance for fully vaccinated worshippers following an easing of restrictions earlier in October 2021. The Madina route was temporarily suspended in 2020 as a result of travel restrictions following the Covid-19 pandemic.
Passengers flying to Madina are not required to quarantine if they are fully vaccinated with either two doses of Pfizer, Oxford AstraZeneca or Moderna, or one dose of Johnson & Johnson, or have received two doses of Sinopharm or Sinovac plus one dose of Pfizer, Oxford AstraZeneca or Moderna.
