Ethiopian Airlines has said it will operate two flights to Lagos, effective July 1 this year.
These additional flights, the African carrier said, will facilitate seamless and quicker connections to destinations across Africa and Asia, reducing overall travel time for passengers.
The new schedule includes four evening departures at 10:00 pm and three morning departures at 5:40am. The existing daily midday flight will continue unchanged. The evening flight from Lagos (ET 902) departs at 10:00pm and arrives in Addis Ababa at 5:20am offering connections to all African destinations, as well as Dubai (DXB), São Paulo (GRU), Tel Aviv (TLV), and other international locations.
The morning flight from Lagos departs at 5:40am and arrives in Addis Ababa at 1:00 pm, providing connections to afternoon departures for African countries, Dubai (UAE), São Paulo (Brazil), Tel Aviv (Israel), Mumbai (India), Delhi (India), Hyderabad (India), Chennai (India), Istanbul (Turkey), Rome (Italy), Athens (Greece), Zanzibar (Tanzania), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), and other destinations.
Mrs. Firiehiwot Mekonnen, Area Manager of Ethiopian Airlines in Nigeria, stated, “We are happy to offer more flights and options out of Lagos. These extra flights help us improve service delivery and reduce costs for travelers. Most of our passengers will now arrive at their destinations faster.”
Ethiopian Airlines has been serving Nigeria since 1960 and continues to deploy its modern fleet, including the A350-1000 and the B787 Dreamliner. The airline connects Lagos to over 140 destinations worldwide.
