Flyer Reviews of the Ethiopian Airlines

So unpredictable. Unfortunately you have no clue if you are going to be in their new or old cabin. It is a huge difference to be in a lay flat bed vs angle flat on a 16 hour trip. You pay in advance not knowing what cabin you will get. The staff is hit and miss on this airline also. I have had some truly amazing FA and some who shouldn't be allowed to serve customers. For a economy business class it will get you from point a to point b but dont set your standards too high. My one flight I received not 1 but 2 set of dirty utensils in business class. We documented it with the FA and wrote to EA and I didnt even get so much as a "were sorry". My plug on 2/6 business class seats has not worked and i was just advised to ask other passengers to use theirs in between their use.

Definitely has some issues otherwise ok, may have limited recline.

Better than most - has extra legroom; no under seat stowage during takeoff and landing; traytable in armrest means narrower seat.

Watch out for this seat maybe, near the galley.

Good and bad, but overall an ok seat, no seat reclining in front of you; may have extra legroom; no underseat stowage; near the galley; traytable in armrest means narrower seat; armrests do not move.
