Flying is far safer than driving - so let's keep things into perspective and constructive. The general media loves scare tactics as it sells their news... so please keep this in mind when reading any news reports.
Also make no mistake, Ethiopian Airlines is still a top airline in the industry and #1 in Africa. Newest aircraft, Skytrax 4 Star rated, Dreamliners, and a top managed airline led by CEO Tewolde Gebremariam.
Here are a few highlights of our 737 MAX 8 delivery flight our team were honored to be a part of. This flight was taken after another historic flight a month earlier on board ET's Boeing 787-9 nonstop from Everett to Addis Ababa (youtu.be/kxGu4zBOHpE)
This was the first MAX 8 (ET-AVM) delivered to Ethiopian Airlines on July 1-2, 2018. The routing was Boeing Field (BFI) - Dublin (DUB) - Addis Ababa (ADD). Also included are some images from our MAX8 regional flight to and around Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. The flight was about 9 hrs from BFI to DUB and another 8 hrs from DUB to ADD. We had to stop unlike our nonstop delivery flight on the 787-9 which was 15.5 hrs.
