About

Cabo Verde Connect Services is a virtual carrier based on the Cape Verde island. Through a partnership with SATA Azores Airlines (and with potential other partnerships to follow in the future), the virtual airline connects Cape Verde with popular European cities, with plans to fly to North America in the future. The airline's ultimate goal is to connect Cape Verde to all cities that have large Cape Verdean communities.

As a virtual carrier, the airline doesn't operate its own flights with its own cabin crew and branding or sell the flights on its own website. Instead, Cabo Verde Connect Services charters planes from partner airlines and sells its flights through travel agencies, such as Alternative Airlines!

The airline launched its first flight in December 2020, with a flight between Praia and Lisbon. The airline connected the two country capitals with a plane chartered from Azores Airlines. Due to its popularity, the Praia–Lisbon route was a route that Azores was looking to start flying itself but, because of the partnership with Cabo Verde Connect Services, the airline decided to not go ahead with the flight internally and let Cabo Verde Connect take control of the route instead. In the same month, the airline launched a second route between Sal and Lisbon.

Cabo Verde Connect Services has announced Paris and Boston as routes that it's interested in flying to in the future, as well as plans to offer domestic flights in Cape Verde.

The airline's hub is currently at Praia International Airport. Although, depending on route demand for the future, this could change.
