\u201cWe are thrilled to be announcing our agreement with Boeing for an additional 11 B737-8 aircraft during the Dubai Airshow,\u201d said Ethiopian Airlines Group CEO Mesfin Tasew. \u201cThe order will support our growth plans that we have set as part of our vision and strategy. We are happy that our partnership with Boeing continues to grow over the years, and we look forward to flying Boeing aircraft for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The carrier leverages the reliability, efficiency, and range of its 737 MAX fleet on routes across Africa, the Middle East, India, and Southern Europe, where quick turnarounds and frequency are essential to meet passenger demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEthiopian Airlines\u2019 commitment to expand its 737 MAX fleet underscores its leadership in Africa. Our new agreement also strengthens our nearly 80-year partnership with the airline and region,\u201d said Boeing senior vice president of Commercial Sales and Marketing Brad McMullen. \u201cWe are proud that our efficient and versatile aircraft will continue to play a pivotal role in Ethiopian Airlines\u2019 growth as they further connect the African continent and the world.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
