Life happens, and sometimes you need to adjust your travel itinerary. Ethiopian Airlines understands this and offers a straightforward flight change policy to accommodate your needs. Whether you need to reschedule due to personal reasons or want to take advantage of better flight options, the airline provides flexible solutions with clear guidelines.
Passengers can modify their flights either online through the "Manage My Booking" feature or by visiting an Ethiopian Airlines office. Changes are subject to fare differences and applicable fees, which vary depending on your ticket type, route, and how far in advance you make the change. Generally, more flexible tickets (like Business Class or refundable fares) allow changes with minimal or no fees, while restricted economy fares may have higher charges.
For last-minute changes within 24 hours of departure, additional fees may apply. However, if Ethiopian Airlines initiates a schedule change or flight cancellation, passengers are entitled to a free change or refund. ShebaMiles members, especially Gold and Platinum tier travelers, often enjoy waived or reduced change fees as a loyalty benefit.
To avoid surprises, always check your ticket conditions before booking and review the latest flight change policies on Ethiopian Airlines' official channels before making adjustments. With reasonable change options and helpful customer support, Ethiopian Airlines makes it easier to adapt your travel plans when needed.
