Ethiopian Airlines, the major airline in Africa, will resume offering direct flights to Karachi, Pakistan, as of 01 May 2023.
The airline had previously offered flights to Karachi from July 1966 to December 1971 and later from June 1993 to July 2004.
The new service will operate four times every week.
We are excited to return to Karachi nearly two decades after we last served the city. As the most populous city in Pakistan, Karachi will be a crucial gateway to Pakistan and the wider South Asia region. As the only flight connecting Pakistan with Africa, the planned service to Karachi will have a significant contribution to strengthening the diplomatic and economic relations between the two regions. It will also offer convenient air connectivity to the growing number of Pakistani investors in Africa as well as tourists.

The airline is set to expand its presence in Asia with the addition of Karachi as its 37th destination in the region.
Ethiopian Airlines continues to grow its network with over 145 destinations for domestic and international passenger and cargo services.
