About Ethiopian Airlines
Ethiopian Airlines is Africa's largest airline group and a Star Alliance member, connecting more African cities than almost any other carrier. Its Addis Ababa hub is a major gateway between Africa and the rest of the world.
If you hold a Ethiopian Airlines ticket and your plans change, the fare rules on your booking decide what is possible and what it costs. Our concierge team reviews those rules with you and explains every option before anything is changed.

Frequently asked questions
Can you help me change or cancel my flight?
Yes. We help with changes and cancellations on existing reservations. Whether a fare difference, change fee or penalty applies depends on your fare and the airline's current rules, and we explain all costs before acting.
Can you correct a misspelled name on my ticket?
Often, yes. Most airlines allow minor corrections so the ticket matches your passport or ID. Some require documents or charge a fee, and a ticket usually cannot be transferred to a different person.
Can I choose or change my seats?
We can check the seat map and request seats on your booking. Some seats are included in your fare and others carry an airline charge.
