The airline has been an active member of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) since 1959 and a member of the African Airlines Association (AFRAA) since 1968.

The airline became a member of the Star Alliance in December 2011, with its headquarters situated at Bole International Airport in Addis Ababa. Operating from its headquarters, it serves a network of 125 passenger destinations, including 20 domestic and 44 freighter destinations. Ethiopian Airlines also maintains secondary hubs in Malawi and Togo.

Corporate Affairs

Mesfin Tassew currently serves as the CEO of Ethiopian Airlines, having been appointed by the airline's board of directors on March 24, 2022. Prior to this role, he held the position of CEO at Asky Airlines. The airline is wholly owned by the government of Ethiopia and has consistently operated without undue government interference, even during times of turmoil and hardship. Notably, Ethiopian Airlines maintained professionalism and was referred to as a 'capitalist success in Marxist Ethiopia' in 1988.

In 1980, Captain Mohammed Ahmed assumed the role of CEO and implemented a 10% reduction in the workforce. The airline continued to acquire Western aircraft rather than Soviet ones, despite political affiliations with the Soviet Union. Acquisitions included the Boeing 727 in 1979 and the Boeing 767 in 1984. Despite challenges such as famine, unfavorable exchange rates, and economic instability, the airline retained its reputation for excellence in maintenance and training. The Financial Times recognized it as one of the most profitable airlines on the entire African continent throughout the 1980s.

In 1991, following a violent overthrow of the communist government by the Ethiopian People's Democratic Front, the airline managed to post a profit for the year. In 1994, 40 top executives were dismissed after signing a letter of protest against a government report. Dr. Ahmed Kellow, an industry outsider, was appointed as the general manager.

In 2018, it was announced that the Ethiopian government would partially or fully privatize several state-owned enterprises. However, in October 2020, the Ministry of Finance postponed the privatization of the state-owned airline.
