Ethiopian Says Has Not Ordered Any Dreamliners Lately 

Ethiopian Airlines (Ethiopian) says the recent news report by This Day Live about the Airline is erroneous. This Day Live had reported on Sunday, 15 September 2013 that Ethiopian Airlines had ordered eight more Dreamliners.
Ethiopian said in a statement on Wednesday that it had ordered a total of 13 Dreamliners. Of these, it said it has already taken delivery of five and the remaining eight are yet to come.
It said it has not ordered any additional Dreamliners lately. Ethiopian is the fastest growing Airline in Africa. In its operations in the past close to seven decades, Ethiopian has become one of the continent's leading carriers, unrivalled in efficiency and operational success.
Ethiopian commands the lion share of the pan-African passenger and cargo network operating the youngest and most modern fleet to more than 76 international destinations across five continents.
Ethiopian fleet includes ultra-modern and environmentally friendly aircraft such as the Boeing 787, Boeing 777-200LR, Boeing 777-200LR Freighter and Bombardier Q-400 with double cabin. In fact, Ethiopian is the first airline in Africa to own and operate these aircraft.
Ethiopian is currently implementing a 15-year strategic plan called Vision 2025 that will see it become the leading aviation group in Africa with seven business centers: Ethiopian Domestic and Regional Airline; Ethiopian International Passenger Airline; Ethiopian Cargo; Ethiopian MRO; Ethiopian Aviation Academy; Ethiopian In-flight Catering Services; and Ethiopian Ground Service. Ethiopian is a multi-award winning airline registering an average growth of 25% in the past seven years.
