Cabo Verde Airlines starts services to Washington D. C.

The inaugural flight took place on Sunday, December 8, and departed from Amílcar Cabral International Airport, in Sal, at 09:30 am, landing at Dulles International Airport at 02:00 pm.

Before leaving, Jens Bjarnason, CEO of Cabo Verde Airlines, praised the beginning of the connection to the capital of the United States of America.

“We are very pleased to launch a new route to Washington, D. C.”, said Bjarnason. “The National Capital Region previously had few air service connections to Africa, giving this new route a great potential for success.”
