This first-day cover almost raises more questions than it answers. Did this Khartoum-Addis service begin in Frankfurt? What about the earlier post, from 1969, showing a route to Addis via Jeddah? All we know is that on 2 November 1976, a B707 began shuttling between these two cities. Lufthansa still serves both cities, nonstop from Frankfurt, but does not connect the two.

Lufthansa: Khartoum-Addis Ababa
