Ethiopian Airlines<\/strong> announced Tuesday that it signed an agreement with Boeing for the purchase of eight 777-9<\/strong> passenger airplanes and the potential for up to 12 additional jets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethiopian Airlines’ selection of 777-9 jets positions the carrier as the first 777X customer in Africa and builds on its landmark 2023 order for 11 787 Dreamliner and 20 737 MAX airplanes to modernize and grow its fleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are pleased to continue setting the trend in African aviation by adopting cutting-edge technologies to enhance our services and customer satisfaction. Improving our operational performance and commitment to environmental sustainability, the 777-9 offers more flexibility, reduced fuel consumption and carbon emissions,” said Ethiopian Airlines Group CEO Mr. Mesfin Tasew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 777-9 will support Ethiopian Airlines’ plans to grow and renew its fleet in size, range and passenger and cargo capacity to reach high-demand markets in Africa, Asia, Europe and North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Providing growth opportunities for airlines and offering enhanced features for passengers, with a range of 13,510 km (7,295 nautical miles), the 777-9 enables flights from Addis Ababa to as far as Seattle in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the 777 and with advanced technologies from the 787 Dreamliner family, the 777-9 features new carbon-fiber composite wings and engines that will enable the airplane to achieve 10% better fuel efficiency and operating costs than the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boeing aircraft make up more than half of Ethiopian Airlines’ current fleet, including 29 B787 Dreamliners, 20 B777s, three 767s, 14 Next-Generation B737s and 17 737 MAXs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
