Dublin Now Ethiopian Airlines Hub

Ethiopian Airlines started transiting 10 flights per week through Dublin to North America earlier this week. The flights to Washington DC and Toronto stop at Dublin early in the morning for refuelling and a crew change.

Ethiopian Airline’s daily Boeing 777 flight from Addis Ababa to Washington DC and its three times weekly Boeing 787 Dreamliner flight from Addis Ababa to Toronto began stopping at Dublin Airport for refuelling from Monday.

The aircraft park on the west apron near the fire station. As it is a transit stop, Ethiopian is not accepting passengers in Dublin for the onward flights to either Washington or Toronto. Ethiopian previously used Rome Airport for these transit stops and Dublin Airport won the business following a Europe-wide tender process.

Meanwhile Ethiopian is starting its new three times weekly direct passenger services from Dublin to Los Angeles and from Dublin to Addis Ababa on June 20.
