Etihad has left a number of Australians saddened over the weekend after it informed travellers who had purchased super cheap Etihad business class tickets to Europe on Skyscanner (which were available for purchase due to a website glitch) that they would not be honouring the fares.
Australian travellers who last week thought they had snaffled cheap flights to Europe found out on Sunday that Etihad will not, in fact, be coming to the party. This devastating news came after the travellers thought they had scored the deal of a lifetime – sub $500 flights to Europe, some of them business class.
