MyShebaSpace is introduced to allow clients who prefer to secure extra space and enjoy comfort while in economy class cabin, he added.
“Whatever we do to make people comfortable flying again is a manifestation of our desire to stay up, to offer better and be at the fore. We believe that our customers will enjoy the feeling of being in control of their journey,” the CEO stated.
With bundled on-demand services and predictive intelligence, MyShebaSpace will offer extra space with a reasonable top up starting from 30 USD.
According to Ethiopian, MyShebaSpace is not just about letting passengers pay extra to guarantee an empty seat next to them, it is about the airlines unwavering commitment to offer diversified options in line with changing customers’ demand.
MyShebaSpace requires a 72-hour window before flight time to secure extra seat and is accessible on Ethiopian website and mobile app for convenience.
