Ethiopian is 3rd airline to get Dreamliner

Ethiopian Airlines today will become the third airline in the world – and the first outside Japan – to take delivery of a Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

The airline will get the proverbial keys to the jet around 4.p.m. ET today at a ceremony near Boeing’s Dreamliner production line in Everett, Wash.

On Wednesday, Ethiopian will fly the jet from Everett to Washington Dulles where it will show off the jet in a media ceremony outside Washington, D.C., which has one of the world’s largest Ethiopian populations outside Ethiopia.
