Spotting Locations

Third busiest airport in Africa by passengers per year, ADD has more destinations than any other airport in the continent. But the variety of airlines is not high because most of the destinations are served by the national carrier, Ethiopian Airlines. There are not many convenient spots near the airport. The best point for photographing is the big windows in the airside zone of the terminal. From there you can see all movements in the airport.
