Etihad Airways has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with International Golden Group (IGG) to provide their employees with tailored services, benefits and simplified procedures for all their government-funded travel.
Under the agreement, which is part of the Abu Dhabi Government Employee Travel Program (ADGETP), Etihad will offer IGG a range of benefits including bonus miles, additional excess baggage allowance, priority services and exclusive travel discounts.
Additionally, IGG has agreed to make Etihad Airways its preferred airline for all air travel and cargo requirements.
Both parties also agreed to look at possible future joint initiatives.

This agreement affirms Etihad's efforts to offer unprecedented benefits and travel services to government and semi-government employees across Abu Dhabi."
