Under the new codeshare partnership, passengers flying from Newark on-board Ethiopian’s direct service to Abidjan can enjoy fast and seamless connections on Air Côte d’Ivoire flights to a number of West African destinations, especially to Lagos, Bamako, Cotonou, Accra and Lomé.
The new Newark-Abidjan flights will complement Ethiopian’s existing Newark service to Addis Ababa via Lomé, which is operated with strategic partner, ASKY Airlines.
