It did not provide details, but many observers in the region say they believe it refers to the airlines’ flights to Hargeisa, Somaliland…
The SCAA also said it has received an “increasing number of complaints” from the Somali public regarding their travel experiences with Ethiopian Airlines, “If these issues are not resolved by August 23, 2024, SCAA will have no choice but to suspend all Ethiopian Airlines flights to Somalia, effective from that date. This would result in the cessation of Ethiopian Airlines services flights to Somalia.”
