Africa’s largest airline group, Ethiopian Airlines, has finalised preparations to launch flights to three new destinations – Victoria Falls, Oslo and Antananarivo – within three days from March 26 to March 28.
Mr Tewolde GebreMariam, Group CEO said: “Three new flights to three new destinations in just three days is one of the greatest expansions in Ethiopian’s long and illustrious history.
We are proud that we are able to link these new stations to the Ethiopian network in such a short period of time.” He said as of March 28, its vast global network would add three new destinations which would further strengthen its leadership in the continent in connecting more cities in Africa to more cities in the world than any other airline.
He said the airline flies 28 weekly flights to four destinations in China, 20 weekly flights to The Americas, 72 weekly flights to Asia, 65 weekly flights to Middle East, 400 weekly flights to 53 cities across Africa and almost daily 54 flights to Europe.
He said this was only possible due to the continued support and dedication of the thousands of Ethiopian Airlines’ employees, who strive for the best service, best safety and best on time performance every day and the great vote of confidence that it enjoys daily from its valued customers.
Victoria Falls, Oslo and Antananarivo are three of the seven new destinations to be launched during the first six months of 2017. Ethiopian started flights to Conakry in February 2017 and before July, Ethiopian would start service to three destinations in Asia: Chengdu, Singapore and Jakarta.
The Airline envisaged reaching 120 international destinations worldwide by 2025.
