TAAG expands international network with first-ever service to Madrid

Angola’s flag carrier TAAG Angola Airlines (TAAG) commenced its first-ever flight services to Madrid, Spain from its Luanda hub in South West Africa.

The Madrid service marks the airline’s 10th international destination from Luanda. This includes destinations within Africa – Cape Town, Johannesburg, Kinshasa, Lagos, Maputo, and Windhoek – and services to Lisbon, São Paulo, and São Tomé.

The flag carrier launched its services to Madrid (MAD) on June 27, 2022, and now operates two weekly flights from Quatro de Fevereiro International Airport (LAD) in Luanda with its fleet of Boeing 777-300ERs.

The news follows the airline’s announcement that it had signed a codeshare and interline agreement with Iberia in May 2022, as reported by Aviación Al Día.
