Ethiopia airline should do it. I once flew Rwanda air about 3 yrs back. Was the most uncomfortable flight I've been in with no where to hang ur leg,small chairs and worst of all the screen . You have 1 screen to 3 people not the usual of you having your own screen and we all have to watch same thing meaning you can't watch movies of your choice or anything u like . I had to go to their office in Dubai to ask if I could get a refund for my return ticket but it wasn't feasible. To worsen the whole journey ,the officials at their airport seized all drinks I bought in Dubai duty free (about 4 bottles of Jack Daniels) as well as other peoples food items etc said they won't allow anybody board with food or drinks. The stupid official even told me its either I drink my whisky or leave it so I had to ask him is that how you drink whisky? To cut the story short, I had to almost finish a bottle of Jack Daniels before entering the flight.

Ethiopian Airways is the best... Egypt Airways is also good, Royal Air Maroc is simply the worst of all they are uncoordinated, the plane cabin has this creaking sound when on motion.... The flight attendant are rude, my first and only experience with Royal Air Maroc was when I took a flight enroute Paris from Casablanca.

Ethiopian Air is probably the best I've flown internationally. Great in-flight food and service. Had a delayed connecting flight, took us to Addis - complementary hotel and food (although the hotel food was tasteless lol)

The Addis hub is also fantastic. MMIA and Nigeria is a joke compared to their country's aviation system which accounts for at least 10% of their GDP I imagine.

Kenya Airways is very discriminatory towards Nigerians. Sub-par service/aircraft from Lagos to Nairobi. Subsequent connecting is usually an upgraded aircraft. Flew an AMAZING 787 from Joburg to Nairobi only to be put on a smelly and rickety 737 on the onward to Lagos. Trust Nigerians, flight was delayed over an hour because people refused the double standard (people coming from Dubai, and other connecting hubs who had just stepped off better planes reserved for more profitable routes whites and Arabs. The discrimination against Nigerians and the subsequent ruckus was very very embarrassing.

Everything at transit is Euros and cost like !!!
Good planes when flying outside Africa.withing Afro to Afro Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...... sucide mission in the learning.
