LUANDA – TAAG – Angola Airlines has received authorisation from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) to operate its new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner on commercial services within European airspace.
The approval forms part of the standard certification and technical oversight process for airlines operating flights to destinations within the European Union. It enables the integration of the Boeing 787-9 into TAAG’s European network and marks a further step in the airline’s fleet modernisation programme.
During the initial phase, the Boeing 787-9 will operate on the Luanda–Lisbon–Luanda route, the airline’s primary connection with the European market. According to the airline, the deployment is intended to enhance the passenger experience while strengthening TAAG’s position on the route.
Clóvis Rosa, Chairman of TAAG, said: “EASA’s authorisation for the operation of the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner in Europe represents an important recognition of the technical, operational, and regulatory compliance work that TAAG has been carrying out. This achievement further reinforces the airline’s credibility among international authorities, our partners, and our customers.”
TAAG stated that it will continue its technical and regulatory work to support the gradual integration of the Boeing 787 fleet into its international operations, while maintaining its focus on safety, regulatory compliance and operational efficiency.
