Ethiopian Airlines to resume flights between S’pore and Addis Ababa from Changi Airport in March

African carrier Ethiopian Airlines will resume flights between Singapore and Addis Ababa from Changi Airport on March 25, after a three-year absence due to the pandemic. There will be four weekly direct services between Singapore and Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, said Changi Airport Group and Ethiopian Airlines in a joint statement on Friday. The carrier is the only airline that operates on this route. Flights from Addis Ababa to Singapore will take about 10½ hours, while the return journey will take close to nine hours. A 270-seat Boeing 787-8 aircraft will be used for the flights, which also connect to Kuala Lumpur. This means that flights will start in Addis Ababa and transit at Changi Airport before departing for Kuala Lumpur. On the return journey, flights from Kuala Lumpur will go on to Addis Ababa after transiting at Changi Airport. Lim Ching Kiat, CAG’s managing director of air hub development, said: “Ethiopian Airlines has been consistently voted as the best airline in Africa, and the network from its Addis Ababa hub connects with more than 60 destinations on the African continent.”<br/>
