An African Airline for One World???
 
Can anyone think of a suitable African Airline for One World? My vote goes with Ethiopian - one of the leading airlines in Africa, good network and if they would only put the ADD - IAD on as a non-stop then they would actually link North America and Africa for the first time in the alliance (and they'll soon have the 787 dreamline in which to do it). They also connect to British Airways Comair subsiduary in South Africa and good links to Europe and Bangkok/Hong Kong/Beijing.
This is just a for the hell of it thread to see what others think!

I believe Ethiopian's CEO has indicated they'd like to join *A in the near future. This topic comes up pretty frequently.
