Etihad Airways, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, has been named the official carrier for the Pakistan Special Olympics team participating in various sporting activities during the year. Etihad Airways also supported the team in last year’s Special Olympics held in Athens in which the 82-member Pakistani team bagged 17 gold, 25 silver and 14 bronze medals and participated in eight sports including athletics, aquatics, badminton, basketball, cycling, football and table tennis.
Amer Khan, Etihad Airways’ Country Manager in Pakistan said: “At Etihad Airways, we are keen to support initiatives that are designed to elevate an individual’s desire to achieve. After the hugely successful event in 2011, we are delighted to once again support the many talented individuals representing Pakistan in the Special Olympics. I wish them the best of luck and I am sure they will make Pakistan proud.”
