MONTREAL, Nov 23 (Reuters) - Ethiopian Airlines, Africa's
largest carrier, wants to buy 10 narrowbody planes and is
considering Canada's Bombardier BBDb.TO and Brazil's Embraer
EMBR3.SA jets among others, as it plans to nearly double its
fleet between now and 2025, chief executive Tewolde Gebremariam
said Monday.
Tewolde, speaking on the sidelines of a global aviation
forum in Montreal, said that he is visiting Bombardier's Mirabel
factory on Tuesday to review the 100-seater CS100.
He said in an interview that he is visiting the 100-seater
CS100 at Bombardier's Mirabel factory on Tuesday, but is also
considering aircraft made by the company's rivals.
"I'm also looking at E2, the Russians, the Japanese, the
Chinese," he said.
Ethiopian Airlines also has 14 firm orders for A350 aircraft
between now and 2025. The carrier is looking at ordering 10 more
aircraft, and is weighing B777 and A350 planes.
Ethiopian Airlines expects to grow from 77 aircraft and 7.4
million passengers this year to 22 million passengers and 150
aircraft by 2025, he said.
