The Cape Verdean airline, Cabo Verde Airlines, will officially resume flights as of June 18 with a flight, on Friday, between Ilha do Sal and Lisbon, in Portugal. The airline stated that the recovery will be gradual, and in line with the company's reliability value, it will add destinations in line with the growing demand and with the aim of connecting four continents through the central point in Sal, as soon as pandemic conditions permit.
From June 28 to March 28, 2022, Cabo Verde Airlines will operate four weekly flights between Praia / Sal and Lisbon on Fridays and Mondays; a weekly flight to and from Sal / Praia / Boston on Tuesdays with return on Wednesdays and a weekly flight to and from Sal / São Vicente / Paris on Saturdays with return on Sundays.
“We are excited that we can finally start to recover tourism in Cape Verde after the difficulties caused by the pandemic. The beaches of Sal, the unique restaurants and the warmth and hospitality of the Cape Verdean people will welcome visitors to a destination that is truly different from all others. This is just the beginning and we are looking forward to creating a better future for the archipelago and all its visitors,” says Erlendur Svavarsson, CEO of Cabo Verde Airlines.
