About – About Etihad Mapped Out

A few camels wondering in the desert close to Dubai with the buildings skyline in the background.

I’ve always believed travel is about more than moving from one place to another. Etihad Mapped Out was created to share the connections, details, and experiences that make the UAE one of the most rewarding destinations in the world.

Through the perspective of Etihad Airways — from its lounges and stopover packages to the way it anchors Abu Dhabi as a global hub — this site offers insights for travellers who want their time here to count. Whether you’re arriving for a business meeting, a cultural festival, or simply a change of scene, the Emirates has a way of turning short visits into lasting memories.

My aim is simple: give you practical, honest, and inspiring guidance for exploring the UAE, with a focus on the routes and opportunities Etihad makes possible.
