Etihad Airways is joining forces with Alitrip, the independent online travel platform of Alibaba Group, to officially kick-off a special online promotional campaign for the upcoming Double Eleven Shopping Festival. During this year's event, Etihad Airways will offer tickets to popular destinations all over the world. Meanwhile, a selection of exciting activities will be launched on Alitrip that will give the audience the chance to experience Etihad Airways' acclaimed service and hospitality for themselves, and to experience an amazing stay in Abu Dhabi on their way to and from China.

This is the first time that Etihad Airways have participated in the Double Eleven Shopping Festival since launching a flagship store on Alitrip in February, 2017. The airline will offer competitive fares and multiple benefits exclusively on Alitrip, bringing premium services and innovative best-in-class products to a wider range of Chinese guests.

Double Eleven Benefit I:

From November 11th 2017, guests can snap up competitive fares to Asia, Africa and Europe on Etihad Airways' flagship Alitrip store.

Double Eleven Benefit II:

During the period leading up to Double Eleven, Etihad Airways will launch an innovative special-edition product called an "Advance Purchase Cards". This card offers a 10% discount. Guests can get the card by depositing CNY 199 during the pre-sales period. They will then pay the remaining amount on November 11th. Having paid in full, guests can use this card to redeem tickets during the ensuing 12-month period on Etihad's flagship store.

To meet the unique demands of different guests, Etihad will offer 200 x CNY 5,000 cards (guest pays CNY 4,500) and 200 x CNY 3,000 cards (guest pays CNY 2,700).

At the same time, Alitrip and Tmall members of all levels will have a chance to draw prize tickets - only having to pay the tax cost.

Lucky guests will have the chance to experience a memorable flight on one of the world's leading airlines.
