Etihad's Apartments are arranged in a 1-1 cabin layout. Your seat is separate from your bed. Personally, I like the rear-facing window seats (3A and 3K). Plus, there's an inflight shower. You can expect caviar, champagne, and a very nice meal. With only 9 seats in the cabin, the service is also quite impressive. |

Etihad: Easy To Earn + Transfer Bonus
Let’s be frank, Etihad’s award rates are steep and the cancellation fees are egregious. While speculative bookings can make sense with other programs, I only recommend using Etihad miles when you’re confident you’ll take the trip.
Currently, Etihad Guest has a great tiered transfer bonus from Capital One. Please note that the transfer bonus is on Etihad’s side, so you won’t see it reflected on your Capital One account.
A one-way award in The Apartments requires 200,000 miles. With the 40% transfer bonus, that brings your points coast down to 143,000 Capital One Miles. If you don’t have enough Capital One Miles, you can also transfer Amex and Citi points.
Transfer Bonus Details: Up to 9,999 miles: 20% bonus Between 10,000 and 49,999 miles: 30% bonus Over 50,000 miles: 40% bonus
Etihad Guest Cancellation Fees: 21+ days from departure: 25% of miles redeemed 8 to 21 days from departure: 50% of miles redeemed 1-7 days from departure: 75% of miles redeemed Within 24 hours: 100% of miles redeemed
Change Fee: $30 |
