Ethiopian Airlines has announced plans to resume its services to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from March 25, 2023. The flight will be operated four times a week using the ultramodern B787 Dreamliner. The airline previously operated thrice-weekly flights between Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and Kuala Lumpur in 2012, but the service was later suspended in 2021. The resumption of the flights reopens convenient and seamless travel options between Kuala Lumpur and more than 60 African destinations. This will also play a significant role in the relationship between Malaysia and Africa, easing diplomatic and socio-economic ties between the two regions.
