Group Chief Executive of Etihad Airways, Tony Douglas said the airline was confident that all passengers will find the three destinations as incredible places to visit.
He said: “Johannesburg is an important route on our network and offers vital connectivity to and from the southern African region. On the southern coast, Cape Town is a breathtaking part of the world, with something to offer the most discerning traveller.
“Likewise, the beautiful island of Zanzibar will complement our network to the Maldives and Seychelles offering more choice for leisure travellers looking to enjoy the glorious Indian Ocean.”
By November, Etihad says it will be flying to 70 destinations across 47 countries.
