As the holy month of Ramzan begins, Etihad Airways has announced that during Ramzan, passengers across all cabin classes to selected Etihad destinations can expect a variety of amenities as well as specially curated iftar meals. Dedicated prayer facilities will be available in Etihad’s premium lounges and onboard flights.

At Etihad’s lounges in Abu Dhabi, New York, Washington DC and London Heathrow, guests can indulge in traditional Ramzan refreshments, such as laban, Vimto, karkade, date milk, hydrating cucumber refresher, and rose milk.

Travellers who will break their fast before departure can enjoy an iftar meal at Etihad lounges. From warm harira soup and lobster machbous ravioli to flavourful chicken biryani, guests can savour the rich flavours of Arabic cuisine. The dessert menu will feature authentic Ramzan treats with a modern twist such as Vimto cheesecake, rose and pistachio mahalabia and rangeena.

In premium cabins, guests can indulge in delicacies such as lentil soup with fried chaami cheese, lamb and date meatballs with saffron rice, and the classic warm umm ali dessert. For those seeking a lighter option, there will be healthy iftar salad.

Guests in Economy class will enjoy Arabic mezze, braised lamb with vermicelli rice, fried onion, and almond and for dessert, they will be served Vimto mousse with khabeesa.

For guests breaking their fast just before or after landing, Etihad will provide iftar bags decorated with traditional Emirati artwork, containing Laban, water, and dates.
