Ethiopian Airlines begins flights to Enugu

Ethiopian Airlines Group, the largest pan African airline, has resumed weekly passenger services to Enugu,

Ethiopian Airlines Group, the largest pan African airline, has resumed weekly passenger services to Enugu, Nigeria from 09 October 2021.

The flights are operated on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.

Daily Trust reports that the airline had planned to resume the operation which it suspended two years ago on October 1st to commemorate the Independence Day anniversary but it was shifted following the tension in the South East.

Ethiopian is one of the oldest carriers flying to Nigeria and has been serving the country since 1960, strengthening trade, cultural and tourism ties between Nigeria and the rest of the world.

According to the airline, passengers from Enugu will have direct flight connections to many destinations in Africa, Middle East, Asia, South America and Europe with the vast Ethiopian network and modern fleet and enjoy unique Ethiopian hospitality.

Group CEO of Ethiopian Airlines, Mr. Tewolde GebreMariam, assured that the airline would continue to improve on its service delivery to Nigeria.

He said, “Nigeria has always been and continues to be one of our important destinations in West Africa. We are continually improving our products and services to meet our customers’ expectations and the resumption of services to Enugu is key to reach our customers in different parts of Nigeria.

“We thank the people and the government of Nigeria for their continued support in restarting our service to Enugu.”

The airline stated that passengers from its four gateways in Nigeria – Lagos, Abuja, Kano and Enugu – now have the opportunity to fly to more than 130 Ethiopian global destinations in five continents.

Ethiopian became the first international carrier to fly to Enugu when it commenced flight in 2013 before the service was suspended for two years as the airport was undergoing renovation.
