Cobalt Air Agrees Interline Agreement with Etihad Airways

Cobalt Air, Cyprus' largest airline, is pleased to announce it has entered into an interline agreement with global carrier Etihad Airways. The deal will help Cobalt Air to widen its passenger reach and encourage more tourism from the Middle East and beyond to Cyprus.
The agreement opens Cyprus to a wealth of 100-plus routes from Abu Dhabi to the East. Cyprus originating passengers can book onward services via Abu Dhabi to Sydney, for example, checking in their luggage at Larnaca Airport through to final destination - but with two boarding cards. At present, all Interline reservations (reservations connecting Cobalt flights via Larnaca and Etihad flights via Abu Dhabi) should be made via your preferred travel agent.
The arrangement gives Cobalt a stronger presence in the Middle East and Etihad has a connection once again to Cyprus, a route it stopped serving in its own right in 2014. Cobalt started flying to Abu Dhabi from Larnaca at the end of February this year with Airbus A320 aircraft, with economy fares from 75 Euros one way.
Cobalt's inflight experience was recently enhanced by the introduction of Bluebox Wow IFE on all aircraft. All of Cobalt's flights to Abu Dhabi also feature its new Business Class featuring large bespoke business seats and dine on demand catering.
