Aug 30, 2018 (newstodate): After a series of meetings with stakeholders in Norway's seafood exports, the date for launch of the coming new China-bound freighter service by Ethiopian Airlines now seems to have been set for September 27, 2018.
This has not, however, yet been officially announced while reported by an industry source.
The carrier will be operating the service with a Boeing 777-200F flying from Addis Abeba to Lagos, in Nigeria, to Oslo, and continuing to Guangzhou via a stop at Liege to load other European shipments for China.
The new freighter service comes in addition to Ethiopian Airline's flights to Oslo since March 27, 2017, currently offering five weekly rotations between Addis Ababa and Oslo with Boeing 787-8 aircraft, and providing the first direct air link from Oslo to Africa via Stockholm that has been served since October 28, 2003.
