Ethiopian airlines Dhaka-Addis Ababa flight from Mar 8
Ethiopian Airlines has decided to commence flights between Addis Ababa and Dhaka from March 8 next year as Bangladesh and Ethiopia, known as the African aviation hub, signed an air service agreement (ASA) last week to establish a direct air link.
"The Airline has chosen March 8, the International Women's Day, to commence the Addis Ababa-Dhaka-Addis Ababa direct flight. Initially, it will operate five weekly flights," Managing Director of Rhythm Group, the airline's General Sales Agent (GSA) in Bangladesh, Shohag Hossain told BSS on Tuesday.
He said the Ethiopian transport minister and Ethiopian Airlines group CEO will visit Bangladesh on boarding the inaugural flight of the African airline giant.
"The route will offer various connecting flights in compatible fare to the Bangladeshi expatriates as the airline, the biggest network in Africa, connects all major cities of Europe and North America from Addis Ababa, the base of the Ethiopian airlines," he said.
