Etihad Airways has resumed its operations at Bacha Khan International Airport (BKIAP), Peshawar, after more than 10 years.
According to the Pakistan Airports Authority (PAA), Etihad flight EY-276 from Abu Dhabi landed in Peshawar to a warm welcome, receiving the traditional water salute from airport authorities. This was the airline’s first arrival at the airport since 2014.
The airline will now operate five weekly flights between Abu Dhabi and Peshawar. The service is scheduled for every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday. Departures from Peshawar will be operated as EY-277 at 8:00 am, offering passengers direct access to the UAE’s capital.
With Etihad’s return, Peshawar has added yet another global carrier to its network. The airline is now the third international operator to begin services from BKIAP in 2025, following Fly Dubai and Flyadeal, both of which launched routes earlier this year.
PAA officials highlighted that the addition of these flights strengthens travel options for passengers from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and beyond.
