Ethiopian Airlines confirms comeback of New York flights
Ethiopian Airlines plans to launch 3X-weekly Addis Ababa-Lomé (Togo)-New York JFK services by the end of June. The carrier suspended flights to New York-Newark in 2004 to provide nonstop service from Washington Dulles to Addis Ababa. Flights to New York will make an intermediate stop in Lomé, the home base for Ethiopian Airline’s partner ASKY Airlines, in both directions. The carrier operates a Boeing 787, configured with 24 business class and 246 economy seats, on the route. Ethiopian already operates to Washington Dulles, Toronto and Los Angeles. CE Tewolde Gebremariam said in December that additional, new destinations will be Jakarta and a further city in China—either Chongqing or Chengdu. He said the carrier also plans a comeback in Singapore, as well as Oslo (Norway) and Mauritius in the near future. <br/>
