I lived in Abu Dhabi for 3 years and have visited numerous times. It is a great city to visit. Sheikh Zayed mosque is magnificent, the Abu Dhabi Louvre is wonderful, loads of great restaurants and bars. It's really a city to visit, look around and chill out a lot (but don't go in July/August!). It's true drinks are very expensive - so look for happy hour deals. Haha, loved the Yallah! Yallah!
This is nice! I am trying to do the same, If I'm planning my stopover in Jan 2025 on my return journey, can i book the hotel now? Or is there any timeframe for advance booking?
So, while booking the flight you get the option to choose the hotel right ? When you pay for your flights do you immediately or automatically get reservation for the hotel you chose while booking the flight ? or You have to first pay for the flight and then later book the hotel later on the ethiad website using the reference code
Hi we are planning to do this stopover on our way to India from US. Can you let me know what happens to the check in baggage. Did you have to carry that with you to the hotel or is there a storage in airport . Thanks

Your checked-in luggage will be transferred to the next flight. You will only have hand luggage for the duration of your stopover.
Thank you for the quick response. That helps !
NORMELY when we get the ticket then there are no hotel rooms available. is it true because a lot of people complain.?
Yeah, we had to keep checking and almost give up getting the free deal. Then 2 hotels popped up, one near the airport and the one we stayed in.
when did this happen? as in how many months old is this incidence?
