Effective March 1, Airlink will move its Luanda flights from 4 de Fevereiro International Airport to the city’s new Dr Agostinho Neto International Airport.
The Airlink flights will arrive and depart from gate B20 at the new airport’s international terminal.
The move is in line with the transfer of international and domestic flights to the newly commissioned airport, which is 45km east of the capital, Luanda.
“With Angola’s economic diversification and growth strategy, the country is rapidly emerging as an important Airlink market for business travel, with Luanda as the primary gateway. The state-of-the-art new airport promises to facilitate smooth and efficient passenger, baggage and cargo flows, and a comfortable experience for our travellers,” said Airlink CEO, de Villiers Englebrecht.
Airlink launched its Johannesburg-Luanda service in 2021 and currently operates four weekly return flights.
Flights on the Johannesburg-Luanda route will operate from the new airport (NBJ) on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays, at the following times:
- Flight 4Z044 will depart Johannesburg at 09h40 and arrive in Luanda at 12h30.
- The return flight 4Z045 will depart Luanda at 13h25 and arrive in Johannesburg at 17h50.
