Etihad collaborates with Armani in Business Class

Etihad Airways, headquartered in Abu Dhabi, has redefined premium air travel by joining forces with renowned Italian luxury house Giorgio Armani and Armani/Casa. This partnership introduces a refined sleep and dining concept to Etihad Business Class, seamlessly blending high fashion with comfort and utility for discerning global travelers.

The signature offering, named ‘The Constellation Collection’, draws inspiration from celestial motifs and Abu Dhabi’s vibrant landscape. Guests are treated to a contemporary dining and turn-down experience, meticulously curated to deliver a standard Etihad describes as ‘Beyond Business’.

Armani/Casa’s exclusive tableware and service elements comprise bespoke ceramics, sleek glassware, sophisticated cutlery, and elegant serving pieces. The collection’s modern color palette—deep green, aquamarine, and slate—echoes the hues of Abu Dhabi, while layered textures reflect the UAE’s cosmopolitan spirit. Each piece, including the ergonomically designed cutlery with signature patterned handles, has been crafted to elevate the tactile and visual experience onboard.

Sustainability remains at the forefront of this collaboration. The innovative tableware reduces overall weight by up to 10%, contributing to lower fuel consumption and a smaller environmental footprint in line with Etihad’s ambitious eco-friendly initiatives.

Business Class passengers also enjoy luxurious bedding designed by Armani/Casa, featuring finely tailored pillowcases and duvets. For long-haul routes, a plush memory foam mattress topper is offered, ensuring restorative rest at cruising altitude.

The Armani/Casa collection is now available across the entire Etihad Business Class fleet, including the next-generation Business Class Suites aboard the Boeing 787 Dreamliners, which have become a hallmark of Etihad’s elevated experience since their debut.
