Walking
If you are in the center of Dire Dawa, start at the main market area (Dire Dawa Mercato). From the market, head north on the main street (Bole Road) for about 1 kilometer. You will see local shops and street vendors along the way. Continue straight until you reach the intersection with a major road (Hawassa Road). Turn left at this intersection and walk for another 500 meters. Ethiopian Airlines is located on your right at the address HVV6+2X, in the Kezira area.
Bicycle
If you prefer to use a bicycle, start from the Dire Dawa Mercato and follow the same route as walking. Ride north on Bole Road for about 1 kilometer. When you reach the intersection with Hawassa Road, turn left and continue riding for another 500 meters. Look for Ethiopian Airlines on your right at HVV6+2X in the Kezira area.
Public Transport (Minibus)
To reach Ethiopian Airlines using public transport, go to the nearest minibus station from your location. Board a minibus heading towards the Kezira area. Inform the driver of your destination (Ethiopian Airlines) as you board. The minibus will take you along the main streets of Dire Dawa, and you should get off at the stop closest to HVV6+2X. From there, walk a short distance to the airline office.
