After the long waited inquiry into the batteries of the Boeing 787 Dreamliners, Ethiopian will be the forst company to resume normal flights.
"Ethiopian Airlines will be the first airline company to resume 787
Dreamliner flights in the world. Saturday's the date," a senior
Ethiopian Airlines source said. "We're flying to Nairobi, Kenya on the
normal flight schedule."
The US Federal Aviation Administration, which grounded the planes, is
expected to issue an Airworthiness Directive on Thursday. This applies
to US airlines, but other nations are expected to follow suit. Air India is expected to resume flights within a week or so.
Ethiopian Airlines previously said its fleet did not suffer any of the
technical problems experienced by other Dreamliners, though it withdrew
the planes from service to undergo inspection requirements mandated by
the FAA.
