Etihad Airline LONG LONG Delay

Just to let QLers know that ETIHAD is a very poor airline in terms of keeping to schedule. I was delayed for 7 hours in the middle of the night in Abu Dhabi. Flight was suppose to take-off at 2am but reschedule to 9am. No compensation nor snacks give. Just hang around the round waiting area. Never take ETIHAD to your destinations.
Others have told me that this is their Normal thing that they do i.e delay flight without notice.

They are on shedule always.. Maybe they had a problem that day. I've had good experience with them.

No airline would survive if this was their "normal" thing. My sympathies for what may have been a genuine one off problem.

Did you Google it first?

Fortunately I never experienced the delay with them.
