Etihad’s Cabin Crew were rude and unfriendly. I flew from CHI-AUH-KTM and cabin crew were mostly east asians and europeans, no south asians. Many passengers from AUH-KTM-AUH could speak english and there were no cabin crew or airline personnel to translate the local language.
I would suggest and will pay extra couple hundred bucks to fly south asian friendly airlines. I have flown both Gulf and Quatar airways and found their cabin crews much more friendlier and diversed.
