TAAG Angola Airlines (DT, Luanda) has exercised purchase rights with Boeing (BOE, Chicago O'Hare) for two B777-300(ER)s airline Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), William Boulter, has said.
Speaking in Luanda last week, Boulter said one of the aircraft would arrive in Angola in March with the other due in April. Together, they will be used to increase frequencies on the carrier's international routes which include: Lisbon, Porto, Rio de Janeiro Int'l, São Paulo Guarulhos, and Johannesburg O.R. Tambo.
The aircraft - D2-TEJ (msn 43253) and D2-TEK (msn 43254) - are part of an order placed by TAAG in 2010 which included two firm B777-300(ER) orders that have since been delivered. In total, TAAG currently operates three B777-300(ER)s and three B777-200(ER)s.
Using Emirates (EK, Dubai Int'l) managerial expertise, TAAG is undergoing fleet renewal and network expansion in the hopes of reaching profitability by 2019. Among the proposed new intercontinental destinations the airline is hoping to serve include London Heathrow, Paris CDG, and Houston Intc'l.
