Holidays to Russia unveiled in latest promotion

Holidays to Moscow start from Monday 1 December, when Etihad launches its first flight to the Russian capital.

Extensions to St Petersburg are also available for two nights and include rail tickets from Moscow for the nine hour scenic journey.

Furthermore, every customer who books and pays for one of the holidays before Friday 31 October will be entered into a draw to win the cost of their holiday back, including taxes and charges.

Tony Gauci, head of Etihad Holidays, said: "Etihad Airways continues to launch flights to new destinations around the world which allows us to widen the variety of holidays we offer. This latest promotion is particularly exciting as it includes for the first time Moscow.

"It also offers a wide choice of summer and winter destinations and is open until the end of March 2009, therefore providing customers with plenty of opportunities to plan their breaks around work and school holidays."

The new promotion also includes breaks to Geneva, New York, Muscat and Sydney in a line-up designed to cater for all tastes and budgets. Also available are holidays to Johannesburg and Sun City in South Africa and the southern German city of Munich.

A first for Etihad Holidays customers is the chance to book breaks to London and watch Chelsea Football Club in action in the Barclays Premier League.

As platinum sponsor of Chelsea FC, Etihad is offering breaks to London which include accommodation at the Copthorne Hotel Stamford Bridge, dinner on night of arrival, guided tour of stadium and match day tickets.

Customers can fly with Etihad to Moscow and stay at one of five hotels for three nights.
