ETHIOPIAN Airline Group, the
largest Pan-African aviation group, has celebrated its 75th
anniversary, having made its maiden international flight in 1946
to Cairo, noted the American Journal of Transportation.
Since then, the airline overcame the ups and downs of the
aviation industry and the challenges unique to Africa to become Africa's
largest, most profitable and award-winning Aviation Group. Ethiopian kicks off
a yearlong celebration under the theme "Celebrating 75 Years of
Excellence".
"As we celebrate 75 years of excellence, we take stock
of our accomplishments over three quarters of a century," said company CEO
Tewolde GebreMariam.
Among the many firsts introduced by Ethiopian, Mr GebreMariam
noted, was the first Jet aircraft in Africa, the first East Africa to West
Africa scheduled flight, the first airline from the Western Hemisphere to fly
to China, the first scheduled service between the capitals of the most populous
nations in the world (from New Delhi to Beijing), the first airline in Africa
to introduce the B767, B777-200LR, B787 (Dreamliner) and later on the A350 to
Africa.
"Today, our industry faces a serious challenge posed
by Covid-19. The route we chose to overcome this challenge is to tighten our
belt, change the way we do business and be agile," he said.
"We remain the only commercial airline that hasn't
sought government bailout and didn't lay off a single employee. I would like to
take this opportunity to cement our commitment to sustainable aviation and
continue to work with all stakeholders to enhance Africa's air
connectivity," Mr GebreMariam said.
