EY 150, EY 226, EY 289, EY 151 - Business Class
Anyone have any experience flying business class on this route? ORD - AUH: EY 150 AUH to AMD: EY 226 AMD to AUH: EY 289 AUH to ORD: EY 151
Specifically, looking to see if these are older planes or new and if new, how new? Any pics anyone can share for business class?

I fly the Chicago route at least once a year in J. It’s a pretty crappy two-class plane. Sometimes it’s a newer plane but every now and then they use an older Boeing that has no live TV or WiFi.

Where can I find CURRENT pictures? I'm specifically looking for the long-haul (ORD to AUH and vice-versa). Outbound will be late November/early December and Inbound will be early January.

Why do you imagine that the 777 interior photos on the web are out of date? Yes, the seat fabric was changed quite a few years ago, but most photos you will find are current. The promised "business studio" on the 777 has not materialized.

This is usually because a wifi network is active within the plane but there is no connectivity to the internet (or too slow connectivity for streaming) .

Total nonsense when people say EY doesn’t have WiFi on this route.
Its also total bull plop when people say that the WiFi isn’t good on Etihad, you will be pushed to find an airline with better WiFi speed and that too with such a broad fleet coverage.
I am more than critical of Etihad’s staff training and their staff’s behaviour, as well as Etihad’s consistency and their F&B, but no I’m really sorry to complain about Etihad’s WiFi is ridiculous. You won’t find an airline with better WiFi coverage than EY,
Try EK’s WiFi in this region and see if it even works, let alone the Indian airlines, I mean is there another option in this part of the world? QRs WiFi isn’t fleet wide like EY and don’t even ask about 9W, AI, TK, WY or Vistara

I've been on two ORD-AUH flights where there was no access to the internet (although technically there was wifi).

iver places like India where it needs to be disabled for regulatory purposes or during certain portions of the flight (take off and landing) it will be disabled. Ive found the internet to be working well and while its not fast enough to stream video, podcasts and music have never been a problem nor has social media.
