TAAG Angola Airlines made history at the Dubai Air Show held from November 17 – 21, 2025 with a static display of its aircraft at such a global event for the first time ever in the company’s existence. The airline showcased its Airbus A220-300 aircraft with the new livery and branding, offering visitors, industry partners, and the media an exclusive opportunity to tour the cabin and experience features of the modern jet.
The airline said exhibiting the Airbus A220-300 aircraft at the Dubai Air Show is a major milestone for TAAG Angola Airlines, while the airline takes the opportunity to invite the aviation community to learn more about the product and global strategy of the Angolan flagship carrier, focused on boosting intra-Africa connections, powered by this versatile and state-of-the-art narrow body. The aircraft has a total capacity of 137 seats, including 12 in business, 35 in premium economy, and 90 in economy.
The Dubai Air Show served as a great platform for the Angola flag carrier to reaffirm its strategic growth trajectory and foster customer experience while the airline is undergoing an ambitious transformation journey, with the entire flight operations now based at the new International Airport, Dr. Antonio Agostinho Neto hub.
In a related development at the Air Show, TAAG Angola Airlines signed an agreement with Boeing to extend training programs for its pilots. Focused on competency and data informed scenarios for both new student and experienced professional pilots, the programs will also assist in preparing TAAG Angola pilots for a variety of specific operations scenarios, including taking delivery of new airplanes into the fleet.
Boeing pilots are also available to help TAAG flight operations personnel with on-the-job instruction, monitoring of early flights and providing feedback to promote safe and efficient handling of new aircraft inducted into the fleet.
“This partnership with Boeing represents a central pillar of our Transformation Strategy and strengthens our commitment to an increasingly sustainable and technically robust operation. By investing in advanced, competency-based training programmes, we ensure that our pilots are fully prepared to operate the new Dreamliner fleet with rigour and efficiency. Our continued investment in our teams reinforces TAAG’s operational excellence and supports the maintenance of the highest international safety standards”, said Clovis Rosa Chairman at TAAG Angola Airlines.
Chris Broom, vice president, Training Solutions, Boeing Global Services said; “For many decades, Boeing has worked with TAAG Angola Airlines to ensure we are delivering the best solutions available to support and enhance their flight operations,” adding that; “Our pilot training solutions can be tailored to the specific requirements of the TAAG Angola fleet and flight crews, and we will continue to work closely together to ensure successful flights for years to come.”
