๐ข Terminal Information
Kombolcha Airport (HADC) serves the twin cities of Kombolcha and Dessie in Ethiopia's Amhara Region, featuring a brand-new state-of-the-art passenger terminal inaugurated by Ethiopian Airlines in August 2025 following a multimillion-euro investment valued at over 12 million Euros. The modern Terminal 1 facility includes contemporary check-in counters, security screening areas, and a dedicated VIP terminal, representing a significant advancement in Ethiopia's domestic aviation infrastructure and establishing Kombolcha as a strategic transportation hub in north-central Ethiopia.
The airport now operates daily Ethiopian Airlines flights connecting the Amhara Region directly to Addis Ababa and features an innovative direct route to Bahir Dar, enabling passengers to bypass the capital for regional travel, making journeys faster and more cost-effective for business and leisure travelers. The facility serves as a crucial gateway to tourism destinations including nearby Lalibela, Weldiya, and other historic sites along Ethiopia's northern circuit, supporting the region's growing tourism industry.
Strategically positioned within the Wollo transport and logistics corridor, the airport facilitates efficient connections throughout the Amhara Region while supporting local economic development and reducing travel times for regional business activities. The world-class terminal accommodates modern aircraft operations with comprehensive ground support facilities, passenger amenities, and operational infrastructure designed to handle the increasing demand for domestic air travel in Ethiopia's rapidly developing aviation sector.

๐ข Terminal Information
Asosa Airport (ASO) serves the town of Asosa, the capital of the Benishangul-Gumuz Region in western Ethiopia. This regional airport is a crucial transport link, connecting the remote and developing region to the national capital, Addis Ababa, primarily through domestic flights operated by Ethiopian Airlines. The airport's infrastructure is basic, featuring a single, modest terminal building. The facility is designed to handle a low volume of passengers, providing essential services without the extensive amenities found in larger international airports.\n\nSecurity procedures at ASO are straightforward but thorough. Passengers can expect manual baggage checks and personal screening. Due to the limited number of flights and the regional nature of the airport, check-in and security processes are generally quick. Boarding is conducted by walking directly to the aircraft on the apron, as there are no jet bridges. Travelers are advised that flight schedules can sometimes be subject to change or delays, so it is recommended to reconfirm flight status with Ethiopian Airlines.\n\nAmenities within the terminal are very limited. There is a small waiting area with basic seating and restrooms. Travelers should not expect a wide selection of food or beverage vendors, retail shops, or Wi-Fi services. It is advisable to bring any necessary snacks or drinks for the journey. Ground transportation from the airport to Asosa town center is typically by local taxis or pre-arranged vehicles. Given the regional context, cash is the predominant form of payment for local services, so travelers should plan accordingly.
