Etihad Holidays, a division of Etihad Airways, unveiled its first programme to Beijing, with some of the lowest lead-in prices for holidays to the Chinese capital this spring.

The Abu Dhabi-based airline will launch flights to Beijing on March 30 and to mark the occasion Etihad Holidays is offering packages to more than 10 top hotels across the Chinese city starting from 2,435 dirhams (BD250).

Each holiday package in the new programme includes three nights' accommodation, return economy class tickets, hotel transfers and breakfast as well as a half-day excursion to the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven and Tiananmen Square.

Tony Gauci, Etihad Holidays' general manager said: "China is one of the world's oldest civilisations with an incredible history and Etihad Holidays is very excited to unveil its first programme to this wonderful destination.

"Etihad Holidays customers can enjoy China's incredible history, culture and cuisine with some of our lowest ever lead-in prices which include city tours and flights on our new Abu Dhabi to Beijing service."

There are also several additional excursions available for a supplementary price to see some of China's historical past. These include trips to The Great Wall of China and the Ming Tombs.
