U.S IMMIGRATION Pre-clearance facility in Abu Dhabi

All Etihad Airways guests flying to our U.S. destinations – Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and Washington D.C. can now use Abu Dhabi International Airport’s U.S. Customs and Border Protection Facility located at Terminal 3.

This facility enables guests flying Etihad Airways to pre-clear the U.S. Customs and Border Protection formalities before boarding their flights in Abu Dhabi. On touchdown in the U.S., guests will be treated as though they are domestic arrivals. This means our guests are likely to have shorter connection times for onward flights in the U.S. with luggage arriving directly to the final destination. Travelers from the U.S., Canada and those eligible under the Visa Waiver Program can also experience shorter wait times. And with the addition of Automated Passport Control (APC) kiosks, U.S., Canadian and eligible Visa Waiver Program international travelers can experience even shorter wait times and faster processing when they use the Automated Passport Control (APC) kiosks at the airport.
