Zambia Airways revived after 24 years

Zambia Airways is to be revived after 24 years thanks to a $30m (£24m) deal with Ethiopian Airlines. Africa’s newest national carrier is to begin flights later this year on 12 aircraft to destinations in Africa, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. By 2018 is it expected to carry 1.9 million passengers. The Zambian government’s main development agency will hold a 55% stake, while Ethiopian Airlines will maintain a 45% stake.

The Ethiopian carrier has several similar deals in the pipeline and has also put in a bid to run Nigeria Air when it is revived. https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-africa-45245119
