According to Ethiopian Airlines’ corporate press release, this route inaugurates the airline’s first passenger link to Vietnam and marks its 20th destination in Asia, underscoring its strategic expansion across the continent. The commencement on July 10, 2025, reflects the airline’s aim to enhance intercontinental connectivity between Ethiopia and Southeast Asia via its Addis Ababa hub.
