Crafted with care, the charcoal loungewear offers a sumptuously soft touch, boasting anti-wrinkle properties for a pristine appearance throughout the journey.

ESPA Skincare
With a focus on guest wellbeing, Etihad has collaborated with aromatherapy and wellness pioneers ESPA to offer luxury skincare products for amenity kits and premium cabin washrooms.
Drawing from 30 years of expertise, ESPA creates deeply sensorial wellness experiences to nurture and nourish holistic wellbeing throughout the journey.
Building on the success of Etihad’s previous collaboration with ESPA for the limited-edition 20th-anniversary amenity kits, this marks the first-ever partnership between the natural skincare brand and an airline.
Etihad Economy tote bags
In Economy Class, passengers on flights exceeding six hours are greeted with a convenient tote bag containing their essential inflight items. Alongside gifts such as Beekman hand cream, an eyeshade, and earplugs, the branded tote bag serves as a practical gift for carrying excess items or future shopping endeavours.
The stylish tote is available in three collectible designs, each showcasing the tailfin designs of Etihad’s iconic aircraft livery. Among these designs are the Greenliner and Manchester City special liveries, adding a touch of flair and personality to the travel experience.
Each bag is crafted from a 500ml PET bottle rescued from a landfill, embodying Etihad’s commitment to sustainability and eco-conscious practices. By packaging the inflight amenities in these reusable bags, Etihad offers a practical and environmentally friendly solution and eliminates the need for additional single-use plastics that would typically be used to pack the items individually.
