Etihad customers also get access to special deals.
Trip.com’s inventory spans over 200 countries and regions and 1.4 million properties.
"We are delighted to be partnering with Etihad Guest to maximise benefits for travellers from the Middle East and around the globe," said Trip.com Group Chief Marketing Officer Bo Sun.
The tie-up is part of Trip.com’s PointsPLUS, which allows partner airline frequent flyer members to earn reward miles or points when making a hotel booking.
"This year, we’re committed to growing our partnership footprint, to bring more choice and greater rewards. This new partnership with Trip.com will increase our presence across the Far East," said Yasser Al Yousuf, Vice President of Commercial Partnerships at Etihad.
