May 01, 2020 (newstodate): Ethiopian Airlines is back in Scandinavia with passenger flights after the break since March 2020 as the Covid-19 struck.
   For a start, flights are commencing with two weekly rotations between Addis Ababa, Stockholm and Oslo with Boeing 787-8 aircraft.
    Since the opening flight on March 27, 2017, Ethiopian Airlines has been operating five weekly rotations between Addis Ababa and Oslo with Boeing 787-8 aircraft, providing the first-ever direct air link from Oslo to Africa as an extension of the route to Stockholm that had been served since October 28, 2003.
    In addition to the passenger flights, now returning, Ethiopian Airlines has been re-routing several freighters and all-cargo flights on its European network to operate via Oslo Airport on their return flights in support of the country's seafood export.
   Next week, Ethiopian Airlines will thus have two freighters from Oslo to Addis Ababa adding transfer options to destinations in Asia and Africa.  
   At Oslo Gardermoen Airport, the carrier is handled by SAS Ground Handling and Spirit Air Cargo Handling, while cargo sales are provided by Kales Airline Services.
