Etihad Airways it to increase its Abu Dhabi to Dublin service from 10 flights per week to double daily this summer.
Starting from July 15, the extra frequencies will add an additional 8,988 seats each week between the two destinations.
Etihad president and CEO James Hogan, said: "From the moment we started flights to Dublin in July 2007 it has been one of our most successful routes.
"The 40% increase in flight frequency will benefit business and leisure travel not only between Ireland and the UAE, but also right across the Etihad Airways network, especially countries which have a connection with Ireland like Australia, Thailand and Malaysia."
