Ethiopian Airlines has decided to launch services to the Russian capital
Oct 29, 218: Ethiopian Airlines has decided to launch services to the Russian capital, Moscow as of December 1, 2018.
Commenting on the upcoming services, Ethiopian Airlines’ Group CEO Tewolde GebreMariam stated, “As one of the world’s leading producers of oil and natural gas, Russia offers ample trade and investment potentials for investors. The country’s advanced manufacturing base and light industry also hold further import-export trade potentials with Africa which is endowed with diverse natural resources and raw materials. The air connectivity Ethiopian provides to link Africa and Russia will go a long way towards facilitating and bolstering multifaceted relations between the two regions. Our direct flights will also promote Ethiopian and other African tourist attractions to the Russian tourists. Russia will be the final BRICS country in our ever-growing global network.”
As of December, Ethiopian will connect Moscow with 59 cities in Africa, with thrice a week flights operated with the ultra-modern 787 Dreamliner, which will facilitate better trade, investment and tourism relations between the two regions.
Ethiopian, which currently operates 116 international destinations, is undertaking multi-faceted investments to enhance its global presence in line with its Vision 2025.
