One of Africa’s leading airlines has taken delivery of two Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners.
Ethiopian Airlines, that was the first airline in Africa to take delivery of the plane that boasts the biggest windows in the sky, high ceiling, less noise, distinctive lighting, and higher air humidity in October 2017, says a second Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner has joined its fleet barely a month later, in November.

The new aircraft brings Ethiopian’s fleet–said to be one of the largest and youngest in Africa–to 95, 21 of which are from the Dreamliner family that includes Boeing 737s, 757s, 767s, 777s, and 787s.
Meanwhile, Ethiopian says travellers in Kenya can now pay for their tickets via Safaricom’s M-Pesa service on ethiopianairlines.com/.
