Ethiopian Airlines has declared that, starting on October 28, it will add three more weekly evening flights from Abuja to its network of flights in Nigeria. As a result, it will now have 10 weekly flights to the city and 33 weekly flights to the country.

In addition to the airline’s daily midday flight, this new service offers passengers more flexibility, faster connections, and additional perks.

Ethiopian Airlines’ Area Manager for Nigeria, Firiehiwot Mekonnen, confirmed that the evening flights will leave Abuja at 10 p.m. and reach Addis Ababa by 5 a.m.

The revised timetable facilitates easier access to important locations in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.

“Our passengers will now benefit from reduced travel time and more convenient connections,” Firiehiwot stated.

“These new flights also come with appealing incentives, including an extra baggage allowance for passengers travelling to destinations such as Dubai, Mumbai, Delhi, and Hyderabad, as well as double mileage points.”

Ethiopian Airlines began operating in Nigeria in 1960 and now flies to more than 150 destinations across the world with contemporary aircraft, such as the Airbus A350-1000 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner, to Abuja (10 weekly), Lagos (14 weekly), Enugu (3 weekly), and Kano (6 weekly). By providing passengers with more convenience and value, the additional flights to Abuja strengthen the airline’s position as Africa’s top carrier.

Ethiopian Airlines’ acquisition of 120 new aircraft

It was reported last month that Ethiopian Airlines has placed orders for approximately 120 new aircraft from aviation behemoths Boeing and Airbus to support its aggressive expansion of routes and flight frequencies, significantly expanding its fleet.

Mesfin Tassew, the airline’s group CEO, stated that this significant investment is a crucial component of the carrier’s “Vision 2035” strategic plan, which aims to solidify its position as a global aviation leader.

The confirmed orders include Airbus A350 aircraft, Boeing’s cutting-edge 787, and the most recent 777X models.

Mesfin Tasew, the CEO of Ethiopian Airlines, confirmed that the airline was still receiving Boeing 737 MAX aircraft. Two were delivered in June, and more are anticipated as planned.

Ethiopian Airlines’ massive fleet expansion clearly indicates its intention to increase flight frequencies and expand the reach of its route network.

The significant growth in the number of aircraft shows a plan to improve connections and strengthen its presence in different areas, such as passenger and cargo transport, logistics, aviation training, maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services, and increased flight frequencies.

Ethiopian Airlines is actively seeking strategic partnerships, which highlights its growth trajectory.

Ethiopian Airlines holds a 35 per cent market share in Africa’s cargo aviation industry. The airline increased its annual cargo capacity from 266,000 tons in 2016 to 715,000 tons by 2023.
