First class fares always seem like an incredible deal when you're twelve hours into a twenty hour flight, thinking "I'd pay literally anything to lay down in bed and take a nap right now."
So... you might as well just book that bed in advance, and save yourself the regret!
Etihad's first class certainly doesn't cut any corners — aside from the "seat" that is really more like a mini hotel room, your ticket also comes with on-demand fine dining and a complimentary spa treatment during your layover. You might actually arrive more refreshed than when you left!
So whether you want to be well-rested when you drop into hectic Mumbai, or simply start your luxurious Maldivian villa experience a little early, you'll know you're as ready as can be :-)
P.S. The route to Malé comes with an extra long layover, but here's how you can turn it into a two day trip in Abu Dhabi (on the house!)
