Life is simple: eat, sleep...fly! When aviation is not really just an option, it must be supported, made easier, more affordable, and more frequent...right!? Angola, the 7th largest country in Africa, exemplifies the importance of this principle. Despite its vast size and significant investment in airport infrastructure, for decades only one city—the capital, Luanda—had an internationally certified airport. Meanwhile, many provincial airports carried the term “international” in their official names but were only certified to serve domestic flights...to and from Luanda and nothing else, of course. No other country of similar size in the region has experienced such limited air connectivity with the rest of the world. That is about to change. Tomorrow, in the beautiful province of Benguela, Catumbela Airport will officially achieve certification as an international airport. This milestone represents more than a technical designation—it’s a gateway to opportunity, growth, and regional connectivity. SkyExpert is proud to have played a role in making this dream a reality: on December 21st, FLY ANGOLA will inaugurate the first-ever scheduled commercial flight from Benguela to Windhoek, Namibia. What was once a grueling 20-hour road trip will now be a smooth 2-hour nonstop flight. This new route holds profound social and economic significance. Angolans frequently travel to Namibia for healthcare, education, shopping, tourism, business, or simply to reunite with loved ones. Similarly, Namibians now have an easy path to explore Angola’s warm-water beaches and unspoiled natural landscapes. This new connection is more than just a flight route—it’s a bridge that brings two countries and their people closer together. When aviation ceases to be a mere option and becomes a catalyst for social and economic transformation, we at SkyExpert feel the deepest sense of fulfillment. This is why we do what we do. #angola #namibia Namibia Tourism Board (NTB) Namibia Aviation and Connectivity Forum AirlinePros Namibia #windhoek #benguela SGA - Sociedade Gestora de Aeroportos, S.A.
