Ethiopian scoops Brussels cargo award

Ethiopian Airlines won the Cargo Airline Award for Network Development at the Brussels Airport Aviation Awards on March 9.
It was in recognition of the largest African carrier’s commitment to expand its cargo network and for becoming the largest cargo airline at Brussels Airport.
Ethiopian Group CEO Mr. Tewolde GebreMariam remarked: "With six new B777F and two B757F all-cargo planes, complemented by the vast network of bellyhold capacity on our passenger wide-body planes, Ethiopian Cargo is currently the largest cargo airline in Africa. We are grateful to our dedicated cargo team, our global cargo customers and particularly to our Belgian partners who have made our cargo Hub in Europe a resounding success.”
The carrier recently opened a new terminal at its Addis Ababa hub, the largest of its kind in Africa.
