National currency Birr is worth less than toilet paper at this airport.Duty free shops refuse to take Birr but insist USD only. Even banks refuse to take Birr to $. Will add 7% fee on CC purchases. .

Flying Ethiopian, attitude is diff btwn ordeal and adventure. Delays, cancellations, or general confusion will make you queue. You'll get hotel voucher & food. Confirm bags, use wifi, stay vigilant.

Exchange your currency for Birr in the luggage claim area. They don't charge any commission or fee!

Spare more time to proceed to the gate. Long queue for security check.

Don’t take a layover here, and don’t depart from here. It doesn’t matter when your flight departs; they won’t let you through security until 1 hour before your flight.

Great and free wifi

Hide in the CloudNine 'lounge' until they tell you to board and you get fast tracked through security !

There are some free-wifi networks that doesn't work. You can try the VIP wifi of Ethiopian Airlines: SSID=cloud9 PASS=ethcloud9

I'm not sure there's anything good here. For an international airport it is terrible! Very unorganized. No clear directions. EVERYONE to take shoes off through security. Dirty! Wear socks not barefoot

What’s good here. Absolutely Nothing! It’s Hot, you go through 4 different checkpoints(TSA) screenings. Then there’s Nothing eat or drink in Gates A14-A16 another TSA screening after all the others.

When making a transfert flight, do not try to go to the duty free, it's a loooong way (behind the fence) :)

Ethiopian Birr is worthless in this airport. The only things I could buy with it was a cup of coffee and bottle of water. The money changer would not even buy back Birr! Ridiculous!

Worst duty free shops ever, but there are many. Make sure you have tissue on you if you need to use the restroom - there are either no toilet seats or no toilet paper!

Totally unfit to a big hub which Addis Ababa is now. Not organized, impolite employees, terrible facilities.

Meaza MariamAugust 25, 2014
Don't expect to exchange your Birrs for any other currency at this airport. Maddening!
Jongil LimFebruary 21, 2016
