Ethiopian New Toronto Route to Enjoy the B787 Dreamliner Services
02-Nov-2012 Ethiopian Airlines is pleased to announce that it will start serving its Addis-Toronto route v.v. using its brand new and ultra modern B787- Dreamliner starting November 9, 2012.
Ethiopian started twice weekly flights to Toronto, its second destination in North America, on 16 July 2012. The flights have enabled Toronto to be connected to Ethiopian extensive network in Africa, via its Addis Ababa hub, including to cities such as Johannesburg, Nairobi, Dar es Salaam, Kigali, Lusaka, Bujumbura, Seychelles, Douala, Kinshasa, and Harare.
Similarly, passengers traveling from cities in North America such as Montréal, Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver, Boston, Los Angeles, Minneapolis and San Francisco have been able to enjoy convenient connections, via Toronto, to Africa using fellow Star member carrier, Air Canada, while also earning and redeeming miles on both airlines.
Now passengers on the Addis Ababa - Toronto v.v. route will be able to experience the ultimate on-board comfort with the ultra-modern B787 Dreamliner. "As the only direct flight between Toronto and Africa, this route has created critical air connectivity between Africa and Canada and is serving as an important vehicle for promoting all round relations. We are very pleased to offer our passengers on this route the best possible product with the most advanced level of on-board comfort" said Tewolde Gebremariam, CEO of Ethiopian.
Ethiopian hopes to obtain additional weekly frequencies on its Addis Ababa-Toronto v.v. route so as to better serve and offer more options to the travelling public.
