Mumbai: Jet Airways will reintroduce its service to New York in May with a stopover in Abu Dhabi in a bid to expand its global network. Jet Airways and Etihad entered into strategic alliance last April and the two airlines will use Abu Dhabi as a gateway to launch additional services to Europe, Africa and the US.
At present Jet Airways flies to Newark and Toronto via Brussels. It stopped its India-New York service last year due to losses and code shares with Brussels Airlines on the transatlantic leg of this route.
On Wednesday Etihad announced it will launch its second Abu Dhabi-New York flight from March 1 leasing a Boeing 777-300ER from Jet Airways. It said Jet Airways will take over and operate the flight from May 1.
