Top tips for finding a cheap flight from New York to Abu Dhabi

  • Looking for a cheap flight? 25% of our users found flights on this route for AED 1,372 or less one-way and AED 5,408 or less round-trip.
  • If you would like VIP-like treatment, including onboard lounge and chauffeur-driven airport transfers, consider booking a business-class flight with Emirates. Emirates business class includes the exquisite A380 Onboard Lounge plus free access to airport-based lounges. Discover their endless entertainment on larger screens, exclusive wine in a mini bar, and convert your seat into a flatbed if you want to nap.
  • You'll appreciate the extra comforts of Emirates' Premium Economy cabin at the front. Apart from enjoying an elegant cabin interior, you can sink into a wider leather seat (19.5 inches compared to 17.5 in basic economy). Stretch your legs on an elevated and cushioned platform boasting a 40-inch pitch instead of 32-34 inches in the economy cabin. Say goodbye to neck strains thanks to adjustable headrests and a deeper recline.
  • If you are a global traveler, we recommend starting at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) as it has an expansive range of airlines compared to Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) and LaGuardia Airport (LGA). It is a fortress for Turkish, Etihad, Lufthansa, Emirates, Qatar Airways, and Royal Jordanian, which are trusted for most Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) flights.
  • Lufthansa is dedicated to the well-being of mothers and their babies on long flights. Onboard washrooms have baby changing tables, and you may request a spare nappy that the airline keeps for emergencies. Book a bassinet (latest 52 hours before departure) for your baby if they are under 24 lbs and their height is shorter than 26 inches. A fee may apply depending on your ticket class.
  • Book a flight with an airline offering an extensive lounge network. A flight with Qatar Airways from JFK-AUH will likely have a layover at Hamad International Airport (DOH) in Doha. While waiting for your connecting flight, you can rest and recharge at their Al Mourjan lounges.

1st time with. Etihad Airways and it was amazing from check in to crew. Great flight.

It has been a couple of years since I flew with Etihad last, after having a unpleasant experience with them coming out of the pandemic. I can say that the experience has uplifted, but I can’t really rate the service. At Barcelona airport the service was great, with their dedicated Etihad staff very helpful. The onboard experience wasn’t great, not very personalised and it really makes sense why Etihad doesn’t feature in the top 10 2023 Skytrax awards. The crew just seemed to be inattentive and almost absent from the cabin. I felt that I had to keep getting their attention. Even after I’d finished my meal, an hour went by before I had to call them to clear the tray/plate etc.

Crew were very polite and quicker in service. Excellent cooling, comfortable seats and tasty food served

In my opinion, Etihad Airways is a first rate airline except for one important element. On the day before my return flights, when I chose my seats on the Etihad website I was charged an additional $55 (US) in order to sit on the aisle. I was not at all happy about this additional "hidden" charge and I felt cheated.

The staff was kind and polite, but it was very very hot and no ways to have some fresh air.it would be also be nice to have more time to sleep, since it was a night flight

My wife and I were upgraded to Business Class on our Dublin-Abu-Dhabi flight on the 22nd of January. Being served by "Mariyan" (not too sure about her name, she's from Tunisia) was the real highlight of our flight, she deserves to be working with etihad. We are looking forward to the next upgrade as we are flying back to Dublin on February 01, 2024. If I am not mistaken we have just reached GOLD status as Etihad Guests.

Eine Toilette der Business Class war gesperrt und somit nicht benutzbar.

One thing is very important is you people not giving seat arrangement together to couple, senior citizen. You have to take care of senior citizen. Do not look about money. Money is not important everywhere. Make relationship strong is very very important. I like Etiyad air line out of all air line. Food was hot and delicious. Air hostess gave very good service, nice attitude, very good behaviour. I gave 10 out of 10 marks. Thanks Jivraj

I WOULD ADVISE NOT TO BOOK YOUR FLIGHT ON KAYAK. THEY SHOW BETTER FARES AND AFTER I BOOKED MINE, I FIND OUT THAT IT DID NOT INCLUDE LUGGAGE. i HAD TO PAY $800 TO CHECK IN MY BAGS.

Entertainment did not work from flight from Abu Dhabi to Kolkata. Emirates has a much better flight in that sector.
