    Etihad Airways Flight Review: B777-300ER flight EY470 from Abu Dhabi to Singapore

    Between the ME3, Etihad Airways operate just a modest 1x daily flight to Singapore compared to Emirates (4X daily) and Qatar Airways (3X daily). When the opportunity arose to fly Emirates or Etihad, I decided to go for Etihad Airways as I figured I would get more opportunities to fly Qatar Airways or Emirates given their more frequent schedules from Singapore. After meeting the nice Etihad flight attendants and experiencing the friendly Etihad inflight service, I didn't regre
