Direct Flights from Los Angeles to Africa

Why did flying on international LAX flights just get better? Passengers who fly to and from Africa with Ethiopian Airlines no longer have to worry about long layovers in Dublin Airport (DUB). Now, all flights from Los Angeles are direct and no one has to leave the plane during the shortstop in Dublin.

Change Faster Between Connecting Flights at LAX

Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) has opened an airside connector between various international terminals. Which undoubtedly makes it easier to switch between airlines on connecting flights.

This improvement connects the Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT). This is where most international flights come in – and terminals 4, 5, 6, and 7 beyond the security check, customs, and passport control. It means that you don’t have to leave the airside area* and go through security check again to get to your next connecting flight.

The best part? The walk through the new LAX airside connector takes only about 5 to 10 minutes. That is a lot faster than going twice through the security check.

*The airside area is an area in the airport beyond the security check with duty-free shops, cafes, and boarding gates.
