Don't bother with economy, it's so small!!! I'm a small person and I was cramped in the middle seat on a 11 hour flight. Not fun. Go for business or first class for such a long flight if you can or be prepared to have trouble moving when you stand up. Also be prepared to have trouble sleeping too. Crew was awesome though, they were helpful and provided excellent service.

  • What airports serve Addis Ababa from USA?

    When flying out of Los Angeles, you will use Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and land to Addis Ababa at Bole International Airport. It's easy to feel lost in the vast Los Angeles Airport, as it has nine passenger terminals. It’s also one of the busiest airports in the US, with over 700 daily nonstop flights. You can always speak to any of their dedicated staff for assistance if you are stuck. Bole International Airport, formerly known as Haile Selassie I International Airport, located in Addis Ababa's Southeast, is the main airport in Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa.  The second-largest airport is the Lideta Airport (HAAL), southwest of Addis Ababa. Bole International serves local and international flights across Ethiopia and the neighboring countries, flying to over 125 domestic and international destinations. The airport has two terminals with lounges and other passenger facilities.

  • Which airlines fly directly from USA to Addis Ababa?

    There are currently no nonstop flights to Addis Ababa from Los Angeles. You can choose flights with one or multiple layovers depending on your flexibility. Airlines with one-stop flight options include Ethiopian Air, Egypt Air, Qatar Airways, Emirates, Multiple Airlines, Turkish Airlines, and Lufthansa. Ethiopian Air, Air Canada, Turkish Airlines, Qatar Airways, and Multiple Airlines have cheaper airfares, while Lufthansa, Emirates, and United Airlines offer flexible cancellations of flights.

  • What are the layover options between USA to Addis Ababa?

    If you choose a flight with one layover, you will need to add a minimum of 2h on your trip. Some layovers take longer than others, depending on the location. For instance, a popular layover for Qatar Airways and Emirates is Hamad International Airport (DOH) or Dubai Airport (DXB). While the two airports may not be too far from each other, DOH has a layover lasting 1h 40min while DXB has a layover lasting between 7h and 15h. Therefore, be careful when choosing flights with layovers on this route, especially if you are in a hurry. Count the number of hours you will need to add to your flight duration before booking. Remember, your entire flight can take between 21 and 38h. Other layover airports include Dublin Airport (DUB), Dulles International Airport (IAD), Istanbul Airport (IST), Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), and Frankfurt am Main International Airport (FRA). Oftentimes flights with more stops are cheaper, but can end up taking much longer to get to your final destination.
