Etihad Airways statement on Indian Students
“In recent days a number of Indian nationals have been refused entry to the USA due to visa irregularities identified during checks 
carried out by the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). This involves students of Indian nationality travelling on F-1 visas specifically to two universities in the US.

Etihad Airways understands current concerns of those students who have booked travel on Etihad Airways’ flights to the United States. Any student that does not meet the requirements of the US authorities, will be assisted by Etihad Airways with travel arrangements back to their point of origin.
Affected students booked on Etihad Airways who choose not to travel from India to the US can get refunds on cancelled tickets as per their ticketed fare guidelines and policies. Alternatively, they can rebook once at no extra charge in the original class of travel and same fare type subject to availability on flights up to January 31 to enable them to resolve their visa issues with the relevant authorities. Etihad also recommends that any affected students should contact the US consulate at their point of origin to confirm that their documentation is in order.”
