Relief comes to citizens of the Indian Ocean archipelago of the Union of the Comoros, as Ethiopian Airlines begins flights to the capital, Moroni. While flights from France to hubs like Dar-es-Salam and Nairobi on other airlines are cheaper, flights connecting from these cities to Moroni are expensive. The state-owned airlines, in its 70th year operates over 240 flights daily from its hub in the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa. In the 2014/2015 fiscal year, Ethiopian Airlines made $175 million in profits, and this is more than the profit made by all airlines in Africa combined. The services to Moroni, the airlines said, will be with its latest B737-800 New Generation with Sky Interior.
