With flight prices soaring due to jet fuel shortages amid the conflict in the Middle East, one major airline is going the opposite route.<\/p>\n

Abu Dhabi-based Etihad Airways announced it will be cutting fares on long-haul flights up to 50%.<\/p>\n

The ongoing war has had a negative impact on demand for travel, and the airline is looking to increase travel from the UK to Australia, Singapore and Asia ahead of the summer travel season.<\/p>\n

With fuel costs rising, many airlines have been adapting to new policies and flight routes.<\/p>\n

Emirates, Etihad Airways, Saudia, Gulf Air and Air Arabia have all implemented flexible booking policies that allow travelers to modify plans if needed.<\/p>\n

Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) said it will be canceling 1,000 flights in April<\/a> due to the rising oil and jet fuel prices.<\/p>\n
