U.S. citizens are required to have visas before entering Ethiopia. The e-Visa makes it easy to apply for and obtain the visa before your trip. Tourists can get single-entry visas for either 30 or 90 days. To apply for the visa, you will need a passport that's valid for at least six months from your entry date and at least one blank page, as well as a recent passport-sized photo and a card for the visa payment. It’s best to apply at least three days before your trip to allow for processing time.

Yes! Ethiopian Air operates nonstop flights to Addis Ababa (ADD) every day of the week. However, if you plan to fly with another airline, your flight will likely have a layover. Turkish Airlines flights will stop in thehub city of Istanbul (IST), while Lufthansa flights will include a stop in Frankfurt (FRA). Additionally, Ethiopian Airlines flights that partner with United are likely to have layovers in Washington, DC (IAD).

Any extra fees are going to be determined by which airline you fly and the ticket class you book. Turkish Airlines offers EcoFly promotional fares that include carry-on bags, but checked luggage will be extra. If you’re flying with Ethiopian Air in Economy, you can bring a carry-on along with two pieces of checked luggage weighing no more than 50 lbs. each.

Opting for a nonstop flight reduces a significant portion of flight emissions, primarily from takeoff and landing.
