The projected growth of tourism in Cape Verde has had another boost as Portuguese airline Air Luxor will, beginning Sunday, November 13, offer a biweekly Lisbon-Praia-Lisbon flight.

The Portuguese company will operate using an Airbus 320 with a total passenger capacity of 150, thus joining TACV Cabo Verde Airlines and Air Senegal in providing international services from the recently-opened Praia International Airport.

Astregilda Almeida of Air Luxor Cabo Verde justifies the new flight with the need to strengthen the airline’s ties with the Cape Verdean market. The company already has an agency operating at the Praia airport, and expects to open a branch in Praia’s central Plateau district in the near future.

In addition to its current charter flights between Lisbon and Sal, the company now intends to “provide assistance to business traffic operators in Praia,” according to Almeida.

Air Luxor’s inaugural flight to Praia will carry on board the group’s president, Paulo Mircuri, Air Luxor Cabo Verde vice president Simões Coelho, as well as official entities, guests and passengers, who will be received in the Praia airport’s VIP lounge by a batuko group and a number of other Cape Verdean artists. In the evening a concert will take place, followed by a dinner at one of Praia’s hotels. News provided by www.Caboverde24.com
