Ethiopia: Emirates Lands in Ethiopia

Addis Ababa — This week marks the start of more air traffic to Africa with Emirates now offering services between Dubai and Addis Ababa.

The company said it would offer a daily service to the capital by December.

Emirates' expansion drive began in India and it is likely as the demand for flights to Dubai increase that it will continually add more routes to African capitals.

Emirates already operate flights to South Africa, Tanzania, Egypt and Kenya.
