Abhijeeth, it would be nice if you could do an analysis of the same: all its current 5th freedom right, and what it will mean for 9W as a partner airline of EY, without the 5th freedom rights.
Thanks, Sumantra.

Sure.

9W has just two 5th freedom flights ex-AUH, one off to KWI, and one off to DMM

They basically are extensions of both MAA/HYD-AUH flights respectively.

These flights were used by 9W to allow for pax from COK/IXE/LKO to connect to KWI & DMM through AUH, while serving the huge MAA-KWI and the significant HYD-DMM markets.

These timings however, clashed with EY's existing flights to KWI and DMM, which mirrored these flights. Hence, I believe 9W saw it fit to consolidate at AUH through their partner, and in essence, free up a 737.

Thank you Abhijeeth! The last line is a beautiful summarisation of the entire description! I long to see the day when 9W metal will fly for 9W, from AUH.
Cheers, Sumantra.

AI brings in new A320s to both KWI routes as well as COK-SHJ. The increase in seats (6 per day, 42 per week) are being reflected here.

Also, correction with AI's A321 seat count - all A321s are now 12J170Y.

EY's seat count for W15 has also been updated. The rest will also be updated slowly.

Didn't they used to operate A330 at some point? I think I saw that in a few years old youtube video.

Nope, they never did. Always an A320, sometimes an A321

ME airlines keep on adding seats wherever they can in India. 110 extra seats to DOH from CCU on a daily basis, I guess economics is not a top priority for these airlines, most of them are in "fishing" mode.

Good for people who travel that route, 5+ hours in anA320 is a pain in the .... EY is still flying A320 to CCU, I guess it's a matter of "Arab family" honour now for EY to switch to something bigger soon.

CCU is one city in India with some unused seats in the bilateral quota with the Middle East. With this increase, the chances of a BA or LH reintroducing a flight to CCU which was low before, and now it will be almost none.

Etihad seems to reaping the benefits of not having Emirates, Air India (RUH/JED) & Saudia services into Kozhikode, while bolstering operations at Kochi, as it will operate 2 daily A321 + 1 daily A320 from Winter 2015 instead of 1 daily A321 + 2 daily A320, representing an increase of 38 seats per day.
