E tihad ervejz je 2016. zabeležio još jednu godinu održivog ra- sta, zahvaljujući novim avionima, dodatnim frekvencijama i uvođenjem unapređenih proizvoda svetske klase. Avio-kompanija je prevezla 18,5 miliona gostiju, šest odsto više u odnosu na 2015. Etihad je deo Etihad evijeišn grupe (EAG), kompanije koja se ba- vi komercijalnim avio-prevozništvom i turizmom, a koja sada uk- ljučuje Etihad ervejz inženjering i partnere u kojima Etihad ima vlasnički udeo, Etihadove aerodromske usluge i Hala grupu . Eti- had je obavio više od 109.000 putničkih i kargo letova, preletev- ši oko 446 miliona kilometara na 112 linija. Broj sedišta povećan je za devet odsto, a broj putnika za osam odsto. Faktor popunje- nosti putničke kabine održan je na istom nivou i iznosio je 79 odsto. Džejms Hogan, predsednik i glavni izvršni direktor EAG, rekao je tim povodom: „U veoma teškom poslovnom okruženju tokom 2016. godine postigli smo održivi rast kompanije. Kvalitet našeg proizvoda i vrhunska usluga još jednom su pokazali svoje pra- ve vrednosti uz snagu novog EAG poslovnog modela, koji je do- neo raznolikost naše kompanije i isplativu sinergiju uprkos glo- balnim rizicima na tržištu. Mislim da je to i najvažnije, da smo u prošloj godini oformili i predstavili novu strukturu naše grupe obezbedivši dugoročni rast i razvoj EAG kompanije.”
