Etihad seems to have some nice deal to Egypt from Kozhikode (Calicut) airport in South India
26k is a decent deal to Africa- it includes food and checked bag as well, unlike low cost airlines (Air Arabia, FlyDubai, Flynas etc)
You may also qualify for Abu Dhabhi stop over option where you can stay for 2 days and explore bit of UAE
Etihad is reducing price only closer to travel date. If I check for June or July 2024, their price is 40-50k return. Closer to travel date they are dropping to under 30k, probably because flight is going empty on several days.
Who is planning a visit to Mummy!
