Ethiopian Airlines has strengthened its position as a leading carrier in the region after securing three major honours at the 2026 PAX Readership Awards.
The airline was recognised as Best Airline in Africa, while also winning awards for Best Cabin Crew in Africa and Best Catering Service in Africa, reflecting strong performance across key passenger experience touchpoints.
The PAX Readership Awards, based on votes from readers of PAX International, are considered a direct indicator of passenger satisfaction and industry perception, adding weight to the recognition.
The triple win highlights Ethiopian Airlines’ continued focus on service quality, operational consistency and customer experience, even as it expands its global network and modernises its fleet.
The airline attributed the achievement to its workforce and ongoing investments aimed at enhancing the overall travel experience.
The recognition further consolidates Ethiopian Airlines’ standing as a dominant player in African aviation at a time when competition across global and regional carriers continues to intensify.
