Credit/Debit Card Restrictions
Ethiopian Airlines accepts credit and debit cards when they are branded as Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Diners Club, China Union Pay, JCB and UATP. In addition Ethiopian airlines accept PayPal, local debit card and mobile payment from some African countries. Boleto voucher is also acceptable from Brazil.
Please be advised that third party payment with credit/debit card through the internet is possible for individuals other than the card holder. However, for security reasons, the holder of the credit card may be contacted by email to verify the credit card used at the airport or at nearby Ethiopian ticket office for in person verification.
In countries where ET does not have a ticket office or general sales agent for card verification the card holders can authorize third party payment by filling the credit card authorization form.

Then send the filled Authorization form to the first ET operating stations by using the below link to find all Ethiopian office address. https://www.ethiopianairlines.com/services/support/contact.
