August 19 2021 I called Etihad airways to confirm the new arrangements. As per Etihad customer service, Indian passport holder can travel to Canada via Abu Dhabi on Canadian visitor visa. Requirements are - Negative RT-PCR test from the departing country in India. Test must be done within 48 Hours. Etihad will also book your Rapid RT-PCR test at your departing city in India and once you arrive in Abu dhabi, they will assist you for Rapid RT-PCR test. Payment should be done at the departing facility in India in advance. In Abu Dhabi, you will get the test results in 90 mins. I don't see any official announcement on the Etihad website yet.
