Etihad Airways Offers Reduced Rates in Celebration of Her Majesty’s 90th Birthday
It’s the 90th Birthday of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth!
To celebrate this momentous occasion, Etihad Airways is offering massively discounted fares for trips to UK, Ireland and other destinations in Europe. With a huge celebration accompanying the event – not just for the monarchy but for everyone in the country – it’s not surprising if non-Europe based Europeans would want to go back home for this day. Practically a National Holiday, the birthday is even more special because it celebrates 90 years of her life.
Two Birthdays
You should know that June isn’t really the Queen’s birthday. Her official date of birth is April 21, but tradition states that British monarchy gets two birthdays a year. It has nothing to do with extravagance but with the fickle English weather. With England usually wallowing in cold and snow most of the year, birthdays that fall smack in the middle of bad weather is celebrated for the second time during the summer. In the case of Queen Elizabeth, it’s every Saturday of June. This way, a lot of people can participate in the celebrations. For this year, the celebration was done in Windsor Castle with thousands of people in attendance.
Etihad Airways Discounted Fares
Obviously, it’s for a very limited time only. If you book from the 15th of June to the 21st this year, you can get a discount for travels in between June 15th to March 31 of 2017.
To recap:
Booking Date must be: June 15 to 21 2016
Travel Dates must be: June 15 2016 to March 31 2017
