Boeing has delivered the first of four 787 Dreamliner aircraft to TAAG Angola Airlines, marking a significant step in the airline's fleet modernization efforts. The new aircraft arrived in Luanda just before Angola’s Liberation Day on February 4, almost five decades after TAAG Angola received its first Boeing 737-200.
Nelson Pedro Rodrigues de Oliveira, CEO of TAAG Angola Airlines, stated, “The delivery of the 787-9 is a pivotal step in our strategy to modernize TAAG Angola Airlines’ fleet.” He emphasized that the new airplane will enhance efficiency and versatility, helping meet market demands and providing passengers with a world-class experience.
TAAG currently operates a fleet that includes five 777-300ERs, three 777-200ERs, and seven Next-Generation 737s. These aircraft connect Angola to destinations across Africa, Europe, South America, and China. With the introduction of the 787 Dreamliner, TAAG plans to expand its long-haul network by launching new routes to Europe and exploring opportunities in Asia and North America.
