We should think of Ethiopia in 50 years. If Addis Ababa Airport remians the main airport, it will be loosing of tens of biloins of dollars, which could be invested in some other branches of the economy.
We should see Ethiopia as a unit and investments should be made in sites where they are most profitable. For air transport, Mekelle Airport seems less expensive and more profitable because of it's geography. We should exploit this and make more profitable business. Addis Airport can still serve flights as Addis Ababa is the head quarters of African Union and other international organisations.
Make air travel for Ethiopians and foreigners cheaper and easier by Meklle Airport the main hub for air travel. From Mekelle there could be trains travelling to Addis or neighbouring towns _ Lalibella, Gondar, Bahir Dar, Dessie etc. Mekelle will become the main financial and economic centre for East Africa because of it's location.
