Ethiopian to welcome Jordan’s capital to its extensive network

ADDIS ABABA: Ethiopian Airlines, the largest network operator in Africa, announced that it has finalized all preparations to commence a passenger flight to Amman, Jordan as of September 19, 2022.

The passenger flight to Amman, Jordan will be operated on a thrice weekly flight schedule, the airlines announced in a statement on Monday.

“We are truly pleased to further deepen our presence in the middle east with our new flight to Amman, Jordan, and our pleasure is doubled since we are able to do it at such a difficult time for the aviation industry,” an Ethiopian Airlines statement quoted Mesfin Tasew, Ethiopian Airlines Group CEO, as saying.

“With the commencement of our new flight to Amman, passengers departing from/to the middle east can enjoy the extensive Ethiopian network worldwide with convenient connectivity and smooth transfer at Addis Ababa,” he said.

“Our new flight will also further strengthen the economic ties between Ethiopia and Jordan,” Mesfin added.

Located between the desert and the fertile Jordan Valley, Jordan’s capital Amman, where the old meets the new, is an ideal location for holiday-makers.

With an astonishing scenery of ancient civilization and modernity, the city has plenty to offer for visitors. As part of its strategic plan, Ethiopian is growing its network stretching to more destinations, widening its reach and providing more options to its passengers, the airlines said.
