Ethiopian Airlines granted extensive freight rights in Argentina

Argentina approved comprehensive freight rights for Ethiopian Airlines, including third‑to‑ninth freedom traffic, allowing cargo to move between third countries and domestic Argentine flights without an international connection; the decision was published on 8 October and implements an air agreement signed in January 2025 that provides unlimited flight frequencies and extensive traffic rights.

Ethiopian Airlines plans to launch a weekly cargo service on 31 October 2026 linking Addis Ababa, Lagos, São Paulo and Buenos Aires, and already operates passenger flights on the same route seven times per week.
