Use Enugu Airport For International Travel - Ethiopian Airlines To S-Easterners by EcoBrick: 8:41am On Aug 16, 2022

By Chinedu Adonu

The management of Ethiopian Airlines has called on South Easterners to make use of the Akanu-Ibiam International Airport, Enugu, for overseas travel, instead of going to Lagos or Abuja to board flights.

Speaking to journalists briefly after moving around the major streets of Enugu metropolis to create awareness and sensitise the public, the Traffic and Sales Manager of the company, Henok Sirak, said that there is a flat rate for international flight tickets for Enugu and Lagos Airports.

He said the awareness was to increase the number of international passengers from Enugu Terminal.

“We organised this awareness to meet our target in Enugu. Since it was made an international airport, we have been flying three times a week but we are going to fly four times a week — Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

“People of Enugu, Anambra, Ebonyi, Port-Harcourt, Imo, and Abia can now fly and cargo their import and export from Akanu-Ibiam International Airport, Enugu to over 125 destinations and routes in over five continents including, Asia, Africa, South America, North America, and Europe. We give full-fledged passenger-cargo service.

“We have the same price for flights leaving from Lagos, Abuja, and Enugu for cargo. So, customers from Enugu don’t need to bother sending their cargo to Abuja and Lagos since the price is the same. That’s the advantage we give to the people of the South East and Port-Harcourt. We have adjusted the price so that passengers can get the benefits of using Enugu airport.

“Finally, I am appealing to all the South Easterners traveling to use Ethiopian Airlines and fly from Enugu to any part of the world. We are operating with a modern aircraft. we are currently using Boeing 787".

The Anambra International Airport in Umueri, Anambra state and the upcoming Ebonyi International Airport have put a serious dent on customer traffic at the Enugu Airport hence the mgt of Ethiopian Airlines begging people to use Enugu.

I just hope this airline understands our local politics here,....trying to lure air traffic from elsewhere to the southeast might attract negative attentions from "very high" places,... my two kobo.

They need to make that P.H/Enugu express way safe for travellers. Sections of it have been turned to kidnapping dens by Fulani herdsmen and it must stop for peace and prosperity!!!

Anyways, for Ethiopian airlines to increase their flights from Enugu to 4 means they're experiencing more patronage. Even people in P.H has to use Enugu and that's impressive!!!

Stop this nonsense. Do u like how Lagos is now choking everyone? U stay in traffic for 5 hours for less than a kilometres journey.

The rest of Nigeria need to be free up by massively investing in Ports around the South South n south east

Crab mentality!!! Enugu airport has no competition in the East because the others you mentioned are local airports while Ethiopian airlines flies international.

Use your head!!!

These people are very wicked to Nigerians in their country. They humiliate and demean even innocent passengers and their officials steal from them. I hope people choose an alternative airline if there is one. This same people that their airline heavily relies on Nigeria passengers to survive. Please check out people’s experiences before you use them. They can jail and detain for nothing.

With high cost of local flights it's a no brainer.
Demand from SE and SS passengers has increased significantly.

It is better they use Enugu Airport. NDLEA is not allowing boys to rest at M/M Airport, Lagos. Those NDLEA and even workers at MM , Lagos, immediately they announce arrival of flight from Ethopia, there is drug consciousness.
