Overall great experience
Toronto - Abu DhabiInternational
Greats: 1. Aircraft Excellence: Flying on the A350 was a standout experience. The aircraft is remarkably quiet, stable, and modern, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey. 2. Outstanding Cabin Crew: The cabin crew were exceptional—polite, well-trained, and highly accommodating. Their attention to detail made the flight even more enjoyable. 3. Pilot Communication: The pilot provided timely and accurate information throughout the flight, which gave a reassuring sense of professionalism. 4. Exceptional Dining Experience: The food and beverage selection was impeccable. Every dish was of high quality, and the variety catered to different tastes, elevating the inflight experience. 5. Lounge Facilities in Toronto: The shared lounge in Toronto offers good facilities compared to other airlines. However, it would be even better if Etihad could establish its own dedicated lounge to enhance the overall premium experience. 6. Priority Baggage Handling: As a priority customer, I was impressed with the efficiency of the baggage delivery. Receiving my luggage promptly added to the seamless travel experience. Can improve: 1. Ground Staff at Check-In: The check-in staff lacked engagement and seemed indifferent. They did not provide any useful information, which was disappointing for a business-class experience. 2. Lounge Information: Despite being a business-class passenger, no one informed or encouraged me to use the lounge. Clearer communication on lounge access would have been appreciated. Overall, my flight was memorable, and I look forward to traveling with Etihad again.

Etihad business class is good value for the money. The 777 from Abudhabi to Manila is a little bit short for a tall guy like me..
