Etihad Airways is to screen the All-Ireland Hurling Final replay live on all its flights on Saturday.

The airline will show RTÉ coverage of the match between Kilkenny and Tipperary to thousands of passengers.

The drawn final on Sunday September 7th was the first time the match had ever been screened on a commercial flight.

The coverage will be shown live on Etihad Airways' E-Box in-flight entertainment systems, equipped with live TV.

The carrier says live sports coverage is frequently shown on its 'Sport 24' channel - including the Barclays Premier League, the Formula One world championship, all tennis grand slams and all golf majors.

Etihad carried 11.5 million passengers in 2013. It flies to over 100 destinations in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia and the Americas from its Abu Dhabi base.
