Ethiopian Airlines Baggage Support

For lost, delayed, or damaged baggage, call Ethiopian Airlines at 1-800-445-2733 and select the baggage option. If your bag did not arrive, file a Property Irregularity Report (PIR) at the airport baggage desk before leaving. Most delayed bags are recovered within 24–48 hours. Keep receipts for any essential purchases — airlines must reimburse reasonable expenses caused by delayed bags.

Ethiopian Airlines Cancellation and Refund Policy

Refund eligibility depends on your fare type. Most major airlines allow free cancellation within 24 hours of booking under US DOT rules. After that, refundable tickets can be cancelled for a full refund, while non-refundable tickets typically receive a travel credit valid for 12 months. Contact Ethiopian Airlines directly at 1-800-445-2733 to check eligibility for your specific ticket.

Independent Travel Assistance

If you cannot reach Ethiopian Airlines or need help with a complex itinerary, rebooking emergency, or last-minute change, an independent travel helpline is available 24/7 at 1-844-655-4141. This is an independent travel assistance service — not affiliated with Ethiopian Airlines — that specializes in urgent rebooking and travel support.
