No its not!!!

Etihads Designator is EY
Numeric Code 607
ICAO Code ETD


And also its said eh-'th'eehad, if your trying to say it properly.

'th' said hitting the tounge against the top teeth and blowing

Its so funny hearing people say Bahrain as "Bar-Rain"... like Iraq as I-Rack

Mate, check out where I live......might know a thing or two about arabic. However your right about the designators. My mistake.

Cheers.

Nice colour scheme ? The A340 I saw yesterday had a brown tinge all over it that made it look filthy !

Just because you live in Dubai, doesn't mean you know anything

Yeah, the aircraft aren't white.... they are more pearlescent beige/white.

ah mate, now now, theres no need to be so rude about it. Incidentally if you read the arabic version of the name, you'd see that its just the good ol' fashioned t, and not the 'th'.
