Etihad Holidays, a division of Etihad Airways, has unveiled its first programme to Beijing, with some of the lowest lead-in prices for holidays to the Chinese capital this spring.
The Abu Dhabi-based airline will launch flights to Beijing on 30 March and to mark the occasion Etihad Holidays is offering packages to more than ten top hotels across the Chinese city starting from AED 2,435 (USD 663).
Each holiday package in the new programme includes three nights’ accommodation, return economy class tickets, hotel transfers and breakfast as well as a half day excursion to the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and Tiananmen Square.
Tony Gauci, Etihad Holidays’ general manager said: “China is one of the world’s oldest civilisations with an incredible history and Etihad Holidays is very excited to unveil its first programme to this wonderful destination.
“Etihad Holidays customers can enjoy China’s incredible history, culture and cuisine with some of our lowest ever lead-in prices which include city tours and flights on our new Abu Dhabi to Beijing service.”
Among the hotel packages in the new Etihad Holidays programme are the three star Harmony Hotel which starts from AED 2,435 (USD 663), the four star Novotel Peace Hotel which starts at AED2785 (USD759) and the five star Crowne Plaza Beijing which starts at AED3375 (USD920).
