    Ethiopian Airlines to order "at least" 10 more Airbus A350-900

    They already has 14 A350XWB aircrafts on order!!

    For me, It's looks like Ethiopian Airlines is richer than SriLankan Airlines!!

    Well, from my childhood when I hear "Ethiopian" what always comes to my mind is poor country with starving people!!
    They are 'well managed', to put simply. And ET was the third customer for 787.

    You never know, While one side of Ethiopia was starving occasionally, the airline business was going places, always.

    Likewise RAM and TAAG Angola do come to mind. They are pretty modernised, and the traffic at their home base is mainly hub/transit traffic, not necessarily terminating traffic

    Dragonair to be rebranded Cathay Dragon

    The Cathay Pacific Group has announced plans to rebrand regional carrier Dragonair as Cathay Dragon, aimed at helping the group capture more traffic growth from the mainland China market.

    The rebranding will see Cathay Dragon adopt a new livery, which while still retaining its distinctive red, features a Cathay-style brushwing logo. The livery will first appear on a Cathay Dragon Airbus A330-300 in April, and will be progressively rolled out across the rest of the fleet.





    Does anybody know the registration of the first aircraft going to be painted in "Cathay Dragon" livery?
