Ethiopia is gateway to Africa

The country, in November, emerged as a premium destination for long-haul travel to sub-Saharan Africa in 2018. The Bole International Airport in Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa overtook Dubai as the leading gateway to the region. On the back of this, travel bookings between November 2018 and January 2019, are set to grow by 40 per cent, which is way ahead when compared to other destinations across Africa. The figure was an increase of January to October 2018 growth prediction which was at 12.2 per cent.
