Ethiopian Airlines looking into 777s and more…
Ethiopian Airlines is reportedly looking to lease two 772s to put on a thrice weekly service from Addis Ababa to New York via Accra, with intentions to start by October this year.
CEO Girma Wake told ATW “If no 777s are available on the market, we will lease two 747-400s. We need the additional capacity also on our flights to China.”
Additionally, plans are in the works to set up a hub at Lusaka Zambia, similar to that of Accra Ghana, to feed its services with one or two based 73Ws.
