Has anyone tried Etihad business class recently? I found they’re giving some insanely cheap rates from Rome to Taipei.
I used it a few times, but didn’t realize their direct route to Rome must be new. Their First is truly outstanding if you are willing to pay a little more $$$.
There’s got to be a transfer in Abu Dhabi—all the Middle East airlines operate on a hub model.
The Taipei route, btw, was launched in September.

UAE very safe.
Has there been any significant airfare price increase because of the Iran war, I wonder.
I bought a Turkish Airlines ticket before the war started, was quite affordable.
In case you haven’t watched the news these days:

Similar travel warnings have been issued by a bunch of other countries.

Why is the cheapest one way like NT$10,000 and return NT$40,000? ![]()
As long as they don’t scam you. I had terrible experience asking for refund and they charges again INSTEAD of refunding!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!
Had to get the cc company to cancel the whole deal. What a shit show. Can’t be trusted ![]()
An excellent opportunity for those who are bold, adventurous, and cheap!

I have not flown Etihad, but I can confirm that other airlines I fly have nearly doubled their fuel surcharge after the war started.

Highly risky as you have no idea if the flight will actually take place and if it does what your war risk is. There is a reason they are so cheap
Return to Arizona from kao airport T$21,000
Did google map seach for USA cities, showed cheaper than other USA city like Los Angeles, San Diego, Denver, Calgary, ect
After the plans for a ceasefire have been announced, Etihad has already increased their prices back to almost normal (more than double than in the screenshot).
Interestingly, Emirates didn’t really adjust their prices down much during the last couple of weeks.
Not that I don’t like cheap flights - but I’m really hoping that that region will stay peaceful…
