Ethiopian Airline was formed in 1945. Most African countries were not even a country back then and some had different names like Gold Coast. Ethiopian started flying in 1945. Its no up start , or it did not just come out of nowhere. It has the best training center outside of the US. fun fact - Ethiopian makes $6 billion a year. If you put all other African Airlines together, they do not make a much as Ethiopian. Ethiopia is world famous and many choose it even in Europe.

[@kimballamram552]

Ethiopia is the only country in Africa that was not colonized by a European country so that had an advantage in starting a national airline

[@danielcoa2189]

Such a huge fan of your presentaion style! No detail left unstated and always with immaculate balance. We remember how rocky your Ethiopian experience started off with the 5th freedom GRU-EZE flights on the outdated and grim looking cabins of their 788s'. Others would have avoided them but you went back to give them a fair shake. The good thing is they have started upgrading older cabins from last month. Hopefully, in a couple of years, a more homogenized cabin across the board will be in order. I believe the A35Ks like the 773s are deployed on long and dense routes rather than prestigious. Down the line, they have 8 of the 779s' to come with more wide/narrow body orders to be announced this year according to their COO. Can't wait to see more of your African adventures this year.

I think this plane would do great for the Johannesburg leg of flights. Our national airline has so few planes that for most international trips we rely on outsiders to fly us.

Africa needs to really wake up and offer much more Visa free or Visa on arrival to people. I am flying on ET in Feb. to Kigali. I really want to go to EBB but again Uganda has very complicated visa requirements. I can get into Rwanda without any hassle and buy an East African Visa! It’s very frustrating when you hold a tier A document and coming from Canada, having a requirement of a yellow Fever Vaccine!

[@yezzispapi]

Patrick I know you’ll be one of the first KZbinr to check Luanda’s new airport once the international flights are transferred from the old airport. I would suggest booking a flight on the new b787-9 that should arrive next month and then perhaps doing a stopover to than take a regional flight on the new a220-300, that way you would be able to try out the new long haul and short haul product of TAAG Angola Airlines and also their new hub, the biggest airport ever build in Africa from scratch!

[@PatrickSheaAviation]

I've definitely been waiting to try Luanda's new airport and TAAG's 787s. Just waiting for the official announcements of when they will be in operation. But after my last TAAG journey, I've been desperately wanting to try it again!

[@yezzispapi]

@@PatrickSheaAviation they are on the right path, I’m Angolan and I’ve witnessed years and years of mismanagement and I’m very excited for the next couple of years ahead, even their newly appointed executives are much more communicative and they show a lot of behind the scenes on instagram which as we all now that is non existing when talking about African airlines as they cover up everything, this year they are discontinuing 1st class as they’ve realised it didn’t make sense as there is not enough demand and they couldn’t keep the necessary standard, (you’ll still see it around until they refurbish the b777’s interior), new rebranding with emphasis in branding the airline as Angola Airlines and not only TAAG, updated website and social media platforms, new short/medium and long haul fleet incoming a220/b787’s plus brand new airport, all of this looks great on paper so it will definitely the most exciting airline in Africa to keep an eye on this year… I saw a podcast of one of their commercial executives and he hinted that probably the route of expansion for the airline will be in Africa itself and probably Brazil and resuming flights to china, they are not very keen in starting routes to CDG, LHR or FRA as they know it is very difficult to compete against established airlines in Europe…

[@puffns]

I believe the one stop, in Lomé, Togo, is to refuel. Rason: Addis Abeba is a high altitude city, and depending on the take-off weight of the plane, the aircraft may not be fuelled to capacity when leaving Addis on the way to the US.

[@PatrickSheaAviation]

Possibly, although the aircraft CAN reach DC and NY nonstop. My guess is that it's tied to Ethiopian's investments in Togo, so it helps Togo maintain flights to North America, for largely diplomatic purposes. That's why they've maintained the ADD-LFW-IAD route on some days, even though they will also fly nonstop with the A350-1000 I believe

[@jarrettwright3703]

Patrick. I love your content as an airline employee and an AV geek. I have USED ET extensively in my African travels and concur with your observations about their services. Their onboard service is always consistent but as you as you say you never know what cabin configuration you will get even within the same fleet. And I have never done an itinerary with them where the aircraft type has not been changed (sometimes last minute). Must be a pilot scheduler’s nightmare But they are quirky and I like them. And I, for one, am sorry to see the old red, green or yellow amenity kits phased out before I could snag a red one. It looks they trotted their -1000 around the system to show it off and now I believe all four have been delivered and they have settled on IAD (two are needed round trip because of the length of flight) while the other two are relegated to LOS (due to consistently high load factors) and LHR on alternating days. Looks like in the DXB market, they have traded frequently for the large capacity aircraft. Keep up the good work

[@eulero75]

ADD to IAD via FCO, then IAD to ADD directly

[@PatrickSheaAviation]

Great to hear from you! Thanks a bunch! Ethiopian is a great product when traveling in Africa, and it seems like they haven't phased out those old amenity kits entirely yet, so you've still got a chance to get the red one!

[@WBTravels]

@1:41 why are the gear doors on that 787 still open?! Im 99% sure the 7i87 like every other aircraft closes the gear doors after the landing gear is dropped or retracted: maybe due to hot & High ops?

[@focusbyhing]

at 18:09 why is there big a flight path adjustment to the SE around Jimma, then back up NE to Addis Ababa?

[@eulero75]

Probably a thunderstorm or a turbulence area

[@BruceM8]

That was interesting, and your story-telling is always welcome. I flew Ethiopian last summer non-stop from Toronto to Addis, a 13.5 hour flight--unfortunately on an A350-900 with 2-2-2 configuration in business class. But I found the seat comfortable, the bed less so, food very good, and the service excellent. I would happily fly them again, though hoping for a 1-2-1 arrangement next time.

[@sebinamuwanga]

Thanks for the video, Patrick. Last year, Nigeria was Africa's 4th largest economy by GDP, though its aviation infrastructure tells a different story. The 20-dollar "quick access fee" was well spent but unfortunately added to the Nigerian and African corruption statistics. Can a fully laden A 350 lift off from Bole International Airport? Ethiopian capitalized on the gap in African aviation. They still deserve credit for running their airline professionally for several years. What you were given on the Addis Ababa to Mumbai flight is an Indian sweet.

[@bircruz555]

"Can a fully laden A 350 lift off from Bole International Airport?" No. Altitude. Ethiopian planes take off the Addis Ababa airport with only half-tank of fuel. In Rome or Dublin, they fill up to capacity for their journey over the Atlantic. They do not have the same problem when they return to Addis.

[@sebinamuwanga]

@@bircruz555 "Half tank" is still a lot of fuel. You are looking at a 7-hour flight, which would still be a lot of weight for a Bole take-off 9assuming there is a full load of passengers). Do they carry fewer passengers and cargo? How do they manage to fly directly to Sao Paulo because, that would require more than "half a tank" of Jet A1.

Those are usually intelligent officers; trust me... his documents were probably copied and stored, and if not, then they work with either the airlines or tourism agents... one time I even got my hotel upgraded to presidential because of my US passport... you can give that guy $200, and if you have a passport for a country that they do not consider rich, he will still refuse it. all I was told was to give us a good review on such and such platform

[@Burner_Acc]

@RK7LifeLine did you watch the video? Apart from that guy holding his passport there are a lot of security breaches. He literally said he could go to the runway and come back or do anything. How about the arrival and departures passageway being one and the same? They literally gave him a wrong boarding pass because one officer was checking in 3 passengers simultaneously. Being a security officer doesn't mean you bypass security protocols. You probably have never been to Nigeria and some of these African countries, the corruption there is alarming. One can literally do anything.

[@RK7LifeLine]

@@Burner_AccOf course, I did, and I can't stress enough about the lack of security measures. but its not always that; a plane coming from usa wont be scrutinized as a plane coming from , let say, Somalia. I've seen that in usa, a plane from colombia get more scrutiny than a plane from canada

I think ET is doing really well. No, they are not the best, most luxurious or whatever and there's plenty of room for improvement.. but they don't waste state money (they actually make the state money) and adjust their offering according to its primary users and their financial means. Middle East standards and prices just wouldn't work for the continent at large now, and ET understands this. I think it's time they step up their crew training and their SOPs a few notches, make some needed changes to the transit experience in Bole and for the sake of god - make sure there's injera on every single flight.
