The airline Azores Azores Airlines (ex-SATA international) will start flights to Cape Verde on June 2 next year, reveals the company spokesman, António Portugal, to Expresso das Ilhas. The Azores Airlines will also fly from Ponta Delgada (Azores) to the Praia twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays, in an A320, with a capacity of 165 passengers. One of the objectives of the operation to the Cape Verdean capital is to capture customers in Boston, one of the airline’s international destinations, offering a link to Cape Verde.
