Ethiopian Airlines ({{lang-am|የኢትዮጵያ አየር መንገድ (ye-Ityopya ayer menged); የኢትዮጵያ (ye-Ityopya) for short), formerly Ethiopian Air Lines (EAL) and often referred to as simply Ethiopian, is Ethiopia|Ethiopia's flag carrier[6] and is wholly owned by the Government of Ethiopia|country's government. EAL was founded on 21 December 1945 and commenced operations on 8 April 1946, expanding to international flights in 1951. The firm became a share company in 1965 and changed its name from Ethiopian Air Lines to Ethiopian Airlines. The airline has been a member of the International Air Transport Association since 1959 and of the African Airlines Association (AFRAA) since 1968.[7] Ethiopian is a Star Alliance member, having joined in Template:Start date.

Its hub[8] and headquarters are at Bole International Airport in Addis Ababa, from where it serves a network of 125 passenger destinations—20 of them domestic—and 44 freighter destinations. The airline has secondary hubs in Togo and Malawi.[9] Ethiopian is Africa's largest airline in terms of passengers carried, destinations served, fleet size, and revenue.[10][11] Ethiopian is also the world's 4th largest airline by the number of countries served.[12]

Historical Facts about Ethiopian Airlines

The 1940s: early years

After the East Africa Campaign (World War II) | liberation of Ethiopia, Emperor Haile Selassie I asked the United States and the United Kingdom, and France to help him to establish an airline as part of his modernisation effort.[13] According to the BBC News it is feasible that the Emperor intended the creation of a quality national airline to help dispel impressions of Ethiopian poverty.[14] In 1945 and the Ethiopian government began negotiations with both Transcontinental Air Transport and Western Air Express (later merged into TWA). On 8 September 1945, TWA signed an agreement with the American historian and foreign affairs advisor to Ethiopia John H. Spencer to establish a commercial aviation company in Ethiopia.[15]

The carrier, originally called Ethiopian Air Lines (EAL),[16] was founded on 21 December 1945,[17][18] with an initial investment of Ethiopian birr|ETB 2,5 million,[19] divided in 25,000 shares that were entirely held by the government.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=59The company was financed by the Ethiopian government but managed by TWA. At the beginning, it relied upon American pilots, technicians, administrators and accountants; even its General Managers were from TWA.[15][20][21] Minister of Works and Communications Fitawrari Tafasse Habte Mikael became EAL{{'s first president and chairman, whereas H. H. Holloway —who was American— was appointed by TWA as general manager. The board held the first meeting on Template:Start date

The new airline's maiden flight to Nairobi carried a shipment of East African currency equivalent to === Currencies === 1 USD$ | 3.75 SR | 4.67 M$ | 0.92 Euro | 26.05 Turkish Lira | 35.80 THB | 14,990 IDR million in {{start date|df=yes|1946|2,{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=59 but the first revenue scheduled service was on Template:Start date;[17][18] it travelled the Addis Ababa–Asmara–Cairo route using one of five Douglas C-47 Skytrains acquired from the Federal government of the United States|US Government.[15][16] This route later operated on a weekly basis.[16] The Skytrains were initially intended for military use, although Ethiopian operated them in a mixed passenger-cargo configuration.Template:Sfnp[22][23] Soon afterwards and the carrier launched services to Aden and Djibouti (city) | Djibouti, as well as a domestic flight to Jimma.[16] The main five routes in the early years were Addis Ababa–Asmara, Addis Ababa–Djibouti–Aden, Addis Ababa–Khartoum, Addis Ababa–Cairo (routed via Jeddah or Khartoum) and Asmara–Khartoum.Template:Sfnp

Henry Bruce Obermiller replaced Holloway as a general manager in Template:Start date. In {{MONTHNAME|7 the same year, four more Douglas C-47 Skytrain|Skytrains joined the fleet. New scheduled services to Sheikh Othman and Nairobi were launched in {{start date|df=yes|1946|7 and {{start date|df=yes|1947|6, respectively.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=59 In 1947, Waldon Gene Golien became the general manager,{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=59 and the company started operating charter Flights to Jeddah during the Hajj season.[16] That year in {{MONTHNAME|2, three more Douglas C-47s were acquired to operate new international routes.[16] A service to Mukalla was inaugurated in Template:Start date. In {{MONTHNAME|9, Port Sudan was added to the route network (it was previously a technical stop en route to Cairo), Lod|Lydda was incorporated as a scheduled destination in {{MONTHNAME|10 and charter Flights to Mumbai|Bombay were launched in November. Services to Lydda and Mukalla were discontinued in {{MONTHNAME|2 and {{end date|df=yes|1948|4, respectively. In {{MONTHNAME|9 and the route to Bombay became a scheduled route, with EAL flying as far as Aden, and BOAC operating the Aden–Bombay sector.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=59The route also included stops at Masirah Island|Mesirah Island in Oman and Karachi.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=59–60 For a brief period until {{start date|df=yes|1948|4, Mesirah Island was used as a refuelling stop; since then, services to French Somaliland and Aden started on a twice-weekly basis. EAL was allowed to fly to Aden using Sheik 'Othman Airport, located 16 kilometers away from the city, whereas BOAC used the RAF Khormaksar|Khormaksar Airport facilities, just 3|mi away from the city. Aden was under British rule at the time as was Anglo-Egyptian Sudan|Sudan, and the British Empire denied EAL landing rights at Khartoum, forcing the airline to move the refuelling stop on the Aden route to Port Sudan.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=60The carrier recorded a £40,000 profit for 1949.[24]

The 1950s: start of long-haul routes

Services to Bombay were withdrawn in Template:End date.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=60 Also this year, a {{US$|1000000|link=yes|1950 loan granted from the Export-Import Bank of the United States|Ex-Im Bank enabled the carrier to incorporate Convair CV-240 family|Convair CV-240s, aimed at operating international routes.[25] Two CV-240s, named ″Eagle of Ethiopia″ and ″Haile Selassie I″, entered the fleet in Template:Start date;{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=60 starting {{start date|df=yes|1951|1 and these aircraft were subsequently deployed on the Addis Ababa–Cairo, Addis Ababa–Nairobi, and Addis Ababa–Jeddah–Dhahran–Karachi routes,[16][26] with Dhahran and Sharjah (city) | Sharjah being incorporated to the route network on 20 February.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=60 In {{start date|df=yes|1952|4 and the airline was appointed general sales agent for TWA in Kenya, Tanganyika Territory|Tanganyka, Uganda and Zanzibar,[27] and by May the same year the fleet consisted of two Convair-Liner 240s and nine Douglas DC-3s or their subtypes, operating a route network that was 7000|mi long.[28] Services to India and Sharjah were discontinued in 1953. On 14 July, a new agreement with TWA that succeeded the original one was signed. Unlike other companies and the airline's preamble stated that it was ″the ultimate aim that EAL shall eventually be operated entirely by Ethiopian personnel″.Template:Sfnp

A new service to Athens via Khartoum and Wadi Halfa was launched on {{start date|1954|4|3|df=y. A third Convair CV-240 (″The Spiritual Power″) was purchased from Sabena in 1955 for === Currencies === 1 USD$ | 3.75 SR | 4.67 M$ | 0.92 Euro | 26.05 Turkish Lira | 35.80 THB | 14,990 IDR.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=61 These aircraft were equipped with rocket-assisted take-off devices.[29] This was a common training for a small number of airlines in the World that EAL had abandoned by Template:End date.[30] Also in 1955, Ethiopian inaugurated a self-owned maintenance facility.[16] That year, Vic Harrell succeeded Swede Golien as general manager of the company.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=61The carrier was in need of newer and larger aircraft, and three different aircraft types —two from the Lockheed Corporation and the Lockheed Constellation|Constellation and the Lockheed Model 10 Electra|Electra, and the Douglas DC-6— were considered for the fleet renewal programme. Two Douglas DC-6Bs were eventually ordered in 1956 for === Currencies === 1 USD$ | 3.75 SR | 4.67 M$ | 0.92 Euro | 26.05 Turkish Lira | 35.80 THB | 14,990 IDR million, including spares;{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=61 an option for a third machine was also taken.[31] Another loan obtained from the Ex-Im Bank, a <abbr title="£8,5 ≈ US$Expression error: Unexpected < operator.–Expression error: Unexpected < operator., €Expression error: Unexpected < operator.–Expression error: Unexpected < operator., JP¥Expression error: Unexpected < operator.–Expression error: Unexpected < operator.">£8,5 million one dating back to 1955, was partly used to finance the two purchased aircraft.[31][32]

Benghazi was briefly served between {{start date|1956|11|7|df=y and {{start date|1957|1|15|df=y. During 1957, a third DC-6B was purchased. Likewise, that year the airline had been asked to take a Lockheed L-749 that had been given as a gift to the Emperor, who declined it. Ethiopian paid === Currencies === 1 USD$ | 3.75 SR | 4.67 M$ | 0.92 Euro | 26.05 Turkish Lira | 35.80 THB | 14,990 IDR million for this airframe, and it was incorporated into the fleet on 4 June; the aircraft was destroyed by fire on 10 July in an accident in Sudan. Two Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen|Yemeni cities, Hodeida and Taiz were first served on Template:Start date. On {{end date|1958|5|23|df=y, Flights to Wadi Halfa were terminated. The incorporation of three Douglas DC-6Bs took place between {{MONTHNAME|5 and {{MONTHNAME|7,{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=61 and EAL started a new link between Addis Ababa and Athens, via Cairo, using these recently delivered aircraft.[33] On 21 Jun and the route was extended both to the north and to the south so that Frankfurt and Nairobi became linked by the same corridor, operated with DC-6Bs.Template:Sfnp[34] By this time and the Convairs were redeployed to serve domestic and regional routes. Given that radio operators were no longer required as part of flight crews and they were assigned other tasks with the airline. Swissair handled the pilot training for the DC-6B aircraft at Zurich. The suspension of Freedoms of the air#Fifth freedom|fifth freedom rights between Djibouti (city) | Djibouti and Aden Protectorate|Aden prompted the discontinuance of the route that linked them. EAL joined the International Air Transport Association (IATA) on {{start date|1959|1|1|df=y. During the year, two Boeing 720Bs were ordered and opened indelivery in {{start date|df=yes|1961|12, two more DC-6Bs entered the fleet, services to Nairobi were suspended once more and the airline{{'s list of domestic destinations saw the incorporation of Bulki|Bulchi, Dodola, Ethiopia|Dodollo, Lalibela and Masawa.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=61

The 1960s and 1970s: the jet age

Port Sudan was removed from the list of destinations on {{end date|1960|3|1|df=y. The airline had its first fatal accident on 15 July when a DC-3 Ethiopian Air Lines Flight 372|crashed en route from Bulki|Bulchi to Jimma, killing the pilot. A Convair 240 was sold to Allied Stores of Palestine on 18 July. On 12 August, an order with Boeing for two Boeing 720B aircraft was placed.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=62 EAL{{'s general manager had already brought the idea of acquiring two jet aircraft for long-haul operations up already in {{MONTHNAME|2, suggesting the Boeing 720B.{{sfnp|Guttery|1998|p=61–62The Sud Aviation Caravelle|Sud SE-210 Caravelle and the De Havilland Comet|de Havilland D.H.106 Comet 4 and the Boeing 720B were all taken into account. Hot and high condition of some EAL operations made the Caravelle inappropriate, whereas the Comet was considered obsolete. The first East–West link made by an African airlines|African airline started on 8 November, when the Addis Ababa–Accra–Lagos–Monrovia route was launched using DC-6B equipment.Template:Sfnp

The second fatal accident took place on 5 September 1961 when another DC-3 crashed shortly after takeoff from Sendafar; a flight attendant and four passengers lost their lives in the accident. The event urged the Civil Aviation Department to investigate the accidents. It was found that the lack of infrastructure at many airfields, marginal even for DC-3 operations, was a major contribution. Landing sites at Gore, Ethiopia|Gore, Mizan Teferi and Tepi|Tippi were included in the list of airfields that would require closure. On 13 January 1962 and the crew and {{cardinal to word|4 passengers lost their lives in another accident involving a DC-3 {{Nowrap|—Aircraft registration|registration ET-T-1, EAL{{'s first aircraft of the type—, this time the crash taking place at Tippi while the aircraft was taking off. The event prompted the government to decide the closure of the airfields at both Mizan Teferi and Tippi. In {{start date|df=yes|1962|3, {{cardinal to word|2 more DC-3s were acquired, and registered ET-ABE and ET-ABF. During the year and the ″ET-T-″ registration would change to simply ″ET-″. Jack B.

It was also decided to build a new airport to replace the Lideta Airfield, unable to accommodate the Boeing 720 jetliner the company intended to acquire.[16][35] This was the birth of Bole International Airport, where the company set its headquarters.[16] In {{start date|df=yes|1962|12 and the arrival of {{cardinal to word|2 Boeing 720s ordered directly from Boeing marked the carrier{{'s entrance into the jet age. These two aircraft were registered ET-AAG and ET-AAH and were named ″Blue Nile″ and ″White Nile″, respectively. The first jet service took place on {{start date|1963|1|15|df=yes when one of these aircraft was deployed on the route to Nairobi. The following day, a new service to Madrid was flown using the new jet equipment, with Frankfurt joining the jet network soon afterward. On 1 April and the Boeing 720 replaced the DC-6B on the Addis Ababa–Athens route; during that month and the West African corridor also benefited from jet operations. The airline entered into a swimming swimmingpool agreement with Aden Airways and Sudan Airways on the Khartoum–Asmara–Aden service. A new flight to Conakry was launched on Template:Start date. Kano, which had been served since {{start date|1962|3|18|df=yes, was removed from the list of destinations that day. On 30 November 1963 and the airline lost another DC-3 (ET-AAT) in a test flight at Addis Ababa; the crew of {{cardinal to word|3 suffered minor injuries. Rome became served for the first time on {{start date|1964|6|5|df=yes on a weekly basis; the flight was routed via either Khartoum or Athens as part of a swimming swimmingpool agreement with Alitalia-Linee Aeree Italiane|Alitalia.Template:Sfnp

Also in the early 1960s and the carrier provided some initial aviation support to the Ethiopia-United States Mapping Mission in its operation to acquire topographic maps of Ethiopia.[36] The firm changed from a corporation to a share company in 1965, and changed its name from Ethiopian Air Lines to Ethiopian Airlines.[16] By 1966 and the contractual relationship with TWA was adjusted to reflect the transfer of management with the appointment of an Ethiopian deputy general manager.[15] Two Boeing 720s were in operation and a Boeing 707-320C was due to be phased in by Template:Start date

The DHC-5 Buffalo entered Ethiopian's fleet in the early 1980s.[16] In 1982, Ethiopian became the first African carrier in ordering the Boeing 767,[37] as well as the first airline to order the Boeing 767-200ER.[38] On 1984-6-1 and the first of these aircraft set a new distance record for a twinjet, flying 7500|mi non-stop from Washington, D.C. to Addis Ababa, on delivery to the company.[39][40] The Boeing 767-200ERs came to replace the remaining Boeing 720s.[16] ATR 42s and Twin Otters were incorporated into the fleet in the mid-1980s,[16] with the first of six Twin Otters entering the fleet in early 1985.[41] The Boeing 737-200 joined the fleet in late 1987.[42]

In 1990, Ethiopian became the first passenger airline in taking delivery of the Boeing 757-200PF|Boeing 757 Freighter,[43] receiving the first of five Boeing 757-200s a year later.[44] By 1996 the airline was flying to Bangkok, Beijing, Durban and Johannesburg; routes to Ivory Coast and Senegal were also being operated.[16] Furthermore and the Fokker 50 entered the fleet to operate domestic routes;[16] actually, Ethiopian became the last company in taking delivery of this aircraft in 1997, just after the collapse of Fokker due to financial problems.[45] In the late 1990s the carrier saw the incorporation of Copenhagen and Maputo to its international network, as well as New York City and Washington, D.C.|Washington as transatlantic destinations; the Frequent-flyer program|frequent flyer programme, named "Sheba Miles" after the legendary Queen of Sheba, was launched too.[16] In 1998 and the airline disrupted their Flights to the Eritrean capital Asmara after a Eritrean–Ethiopian War|war erupted between the two countries.[46][47]

2000Template:Spaced ndashonwards

A fleet renewal started in the early 2000s, with the incorporation of the Boeing 737NG|Boeing 737–700 and the Boeing 767|Boeing 767-300ER;[48] The airline discontinued its service to Newark, New Jersey|Newark in favour of serving Washington, D.C.|Washington in 2004.[49] In the late 2000s the airline announced it would be the launch client of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner,{{#tag:ref|However, this did not happen. All-Nippon Airways was the launch client for this aircraft.[50][51][52]|group="nb" and placed orders to acquire brand new Airbus A350|Airbus A350-900s, Boeing 777|Boeing 777-200LRs and Bombardier Aerospace|Bombardier equipment.[16]

In late {{start date|df=yes|2010|9, Ethiopian Airlines was officially invited to join Star Alliance under the mentoring of Lufthansa.[53][54][55] The carrier became a member of the Airline alliance|alliance in {{start date|df=yes|2011|12 and the third Africa-based carrier in doing so—following EgyptAir and South African Airways—and the 28th member worldwide.[56][57]

Corporate affairs

Management and ownership

{{As of|2017|11 and the CEO of Ethiopian Airlines is Tewolde Gebremariam;[58] he replaced Girma Wake in 2011.[59] The airline, which is wholly owned by the Government of Ethiopia,[3] has traditionally been unfettered by government intervention, even during times of significant turmoil and domestic hardship.[60] Whereas many African state-owned airlines were and remain often poorly run, with staffings often serving nepotistic purposes, and business decisions being made on political grounds, Ethiopian Airlines remained professionally run and managed, leading the Christian Science Monitor to term it in 1988 a "capitalist success in Marxist Ethiopia".[60]

The Derg, after expanding the airline's workforce, which had resulted in a decline in service quality and revenues, allowed the airline to be run on a "strictly commercial basis". Captain Mohammed Ahmed was appointed CEO in 1980, and slashed the workforce by 10%. The airline continued the acquisition of Western, rather than Soviet aircraft, despite the links between the communist government and the Soviet Union, purchasing the Boeing 727 in 1979 and the Boeing 767 in 1984. Despite famine, unfavorable exchange rates, and general economic disarray and the airline managed to retain its reputation, particularly in the provision of maintenance and training. The Financial Times noted that it managed to remain one of the most profitable airlines in Africa throughout the decade.[61]

Despite the violent overthrow of the communist government by the Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front in 1991 and the airline managed to post a profit for the fiscal year. The market-oriented policies of the new government meant that the airline would remain operationally independent, and under Captain Bisrat Nigatu the airline remained fiscally sound, despite disruptions caused by the Eritrean-Ethiopian War.[61]

In 2018 it was announced that the Ethiopian government would partially or wholly privatise several state-owned enterprises, amongst them Ethiopian Airlines, although it would retain a majority stake in key firms, including the airline.[62]

Organization

The Ethiopian government reorganised the airline as a fully owned aviation holding group in July 2017. The aim was to maximise efficiency, enhance client service to global standard, and ease of longterm planning. The initial group consisted of: The Ethiopian Airports Enterprise(EAE) and the Passenger Airline company, Cargo Airline and Logistics Company, Ethiopian Aviation Academy, Ethiopian In-flight Catering Services, Ethiopian MRO Services, and Ethiopian Hotel and Tourism Services.[63] The MRO Services is the largest such operation serving the continent and the Med-Eastern region; fully accredited by FAA and EASA. The Cargo and Logistical division is expanding to increase annual capacity to 1.5 million tons.[64]

Head office

Ethiopian Airlines currently has its head office at Bole International Airport, Addis Ababa,[18] but intends to build a new head office facility. A contest for the design was held in 2009, but none of those plans were proceeded with. On 16 February 2011 it held a second round, and in September 2011 it was announced that BET Architect Plc won the contest. The airline stated that the estimated Ethiopian birr|Br300 million complex will be constructed on a 50000|sqm|sqft plot at Bole International Airport. The company that received 4th place in the competition's second round has threatened to take legal action, accusing the airline of not giving due consideration to the proposed design.[65]

Strategic ambitions and monuments

The airline was featured by The Economist as an example of excellence in late 1987,[86] and economist Paul B. Henze recognised it in 2000 as being "one of the most reliable and profitable airlines in the Third World".[87] In {{Start date|df=yes|2011|7, Ethiopian was named Africa's most profitable airline for the year 2010 by Air Transport World,[88] and it has also been praised by AFRAA for its sustained profitability over recent years.[89]

As a longterm company policy, in addition to the carrier's main activities, revenues are also generated by providing aircraft maintenance to foreign airlines,[90] and specialist training for both Ethiopian and foreign trainees.[91] Every year, pilots and technicians graduate from both the Pilot School, inaugurated in 1964, and the Aviation Maintenance Technician School, established in 1967.[92][93] The American Federal Aviation Administration accredited the airline's maintenance division with licence No. ETIY 102F.[94][95]

Ethiopian Airlines started “Vision 2010” in 2005, which aimed to increase passenger traffic to 3 million, revenue to === Currencies === 1 USD$ | 3.75 SR | 4.67 M$ | 0.92 Euro | 26.05 Turkish Lira | 35.80 THB | 14,990 IDR billion and employees to 6,000 by 2010. By the year 2010 Ethiopian had exceeded all goals set in “Vision 2010”,[96] and the company's net profit for the fiscal year ended 2010-6-30 was === Currencies === 1 USD$ | 3.75 SR | 4.67 M$ | 0.92 Euro | 26.05 Turkish Lira | 35.80 THB | 14,990 IDR million.[88] The results were attributed in part to an aggressive marketing campaign and major cost cutting measures.[97]

In 2010 Ethiopian adopted "Vision 2025", a 15-year development strategy, under which the airline anticipates increasing its fleet to 120 and the number of destinations to 90, carrying more than 18 million passengers and 720000|t of cargo, with 17,000 employees.[98][99] ″Vision 2025″ also considers a fourfold expansion of the capacity building for trainees in the airline's aviation academy.[100]

Ethiopian signed in {{start date|df=yes|2013|7 a deal for the acquisition of 49% of the Malawian carrier Air Malawi. The new airline will be named Malawian Airlines.[101] The remaining shareholding will be held by the government of Malawi and private Malawian investors.[102][103] Malawian Airlines started operations in Template:Start date.[104] For the operation year 2013–14, Ethiopian Airlines was ranked the most profitable airline in Africa and 18th most profitable airline in the world with a profit of $228 million.[105]

In January 2023, Ethiopian signed a strategic partnership agreement with the Zambian government to assist in the relaunch of Zambia Airways. The airline has a 45% stake in the airline; the rest of the shares are held by the Zambian government.
