Ethiopian to fly to Berbera
Ethiopian Airlines is to launch daily flight to the port of Berbera, Somaliland, starting in July 2012. The airline will start its service to the port city using its Bombardier Q
400 aircraft. This latest addition of route to Berbera will increase the flight destination of Ethiopian to 43.
A recommencement of flights to the capital of Somalilad is delayed as the maintenance of the runway at Hargeisa Airport is still underway. Berbera is becoming increasingly important alternative sea trading corridor for the Horn of Africa region.
Ethiopian Airlines said it will start flying to Houston, Texas starting from mid-December, 2019. The route will be via Lome, Togo, and Ethiopian will use its Boeing 787-8 aircraft for the service.
The Ethiopian Airlines announced it has wrapped up preparations to start flying to Madrid, Spain and it will commence the service starting from Tuesday, September 2, 2014. The Airlines will fly to Madrid three times a week.
