I am looking at going through Addis Ababa on my way to Cape Town. It seems that this should be enough time and that I didn't have to go through immigration until I get to South Africa- is this still the case?

Also, I assume it is, but is this airport safe for a young woman traveling alone?

Thanks!

It's plenty of time. The airport is not large, and transit passengers do not need to clear immigration.

The airport seemed quite safe to me when I was there. It was fairly busy, so you will never be alone. I am not a woman, however, so my experience isn't 100% relevant.

Bring warm clothing. I was traveling in the summer, so I didn't have enough of that, and the elevation is quite high, so temperatures are low. The terminal is not heated, and it is open to the outside.
