Dreamline your way from Addis to LA

Ethiopian Dublin-LALights, camera, action – Irish people will soon be able to fly direct to LA thanks to a new arrival on the Irish aviation market, Ethiopian Airlines, writes Catherine Halloran.

The African carrier – which catered for over six million passengers last year – will launch its new Addis Ababa–Dublin–LA flight on June 20 next.

The flight will be the only direct flight connecting Ireland to sub-Saharan Africa and the only direct flight connecting Ireland to Los Angeles.

And not only will you be able to fly direct to LA or Addis Ababa from Dublin, you will also be able to do it in style in the state-of-the-art 787 Dreamliner aircraft.

This new Ethiopian Airlines route will see the first regular service by a Dreamliner in and out of Dublin Airport and for those who like flying, this aircraft is a game changer.

Fares are also very competitive. For €595 inclusive of all taxes, you can fly return from Dublin to LA or from Dublin to Addis, a fare the compares very favourably to other non-direct routes to LA.
