Ethiopian Airlines cancel Djibouti flights

Ethiopian Airlines has temporary canceled service to Djibouti, due to the dispute between the airline and The Djiboutian Authority over the type of aircraft can be operated.

Ethiopian's current 10 weekly Addis Ababa - Djibouti and 4 weekly Addis Ababa - Dire Dawa - Djibouti operates with new Dash8-Q400, switching from Boeing 737 since June 2010. The Djiboutian authority says Ethiopian Airlines can only operate jet aircraft, not turboprop.
