Etihad Airways and Vietnam Airlines are strengthening travel ties between the UAE and Vietnam with the launch of a new codeshare partnership. The agreement enhances Etihad's recently launched service between Abu Dhabi and Hanoi.
Etihad guests can now access key domestic Vietnamese destinations as well as popular destinations across Asia, with the convenience of a single ticket for the entire journey, one check-in, and automatic baggage transfer throughout.
The codeshare will be implemented gradually, and Vietnam Airlines passengers will gain access to six destinations beyond Abu Dhabi: Athens, Addis Ababa, Bahrain, Muscat, Cairo and Istanbul, significantly expanding network reach into the Middle East, Europe, and Africa through Etihad's extensive global network.
Etihad and Vietnam Airlines already have a frequent flyer partnership enabling loyalty members of both airlines to earn and redeem miles across their combined global networks. The partnership, which launched in July 2025, allows Etihad Guest and Lotus Miles members to accrue and use their rewards when flying with either carrier, adding further value to the codeshare collaboration between the two airlines.
