Etihad Orders Widebody Jets, Targets Pre-War Capacity Recovery in June

✈️ ABU DHABI — A Gulf carrier is ordering planes while Hormuz stays shut. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Etihad committing to widebody orders contradicts Embraer's signal of frozen airline capex one day ago. Either Etihad has visibility others don't — UAE back-channel on Hormuz timeline — or it's a confidence signal designed to anchor investor sentiment. June capacity target implies expectation of strait reopening within weeks, not months.
