“TAAG Linhas Aéreas de Angola will reinforce connections on the Luanda – Lisbon route on the 14th, 21st and 28th of August (Monday), adding an extra frequency to the usual flight schedule. On this date, passengers and customers will benefit from three daily flights, in the morning, afternoon and evening, respectively”, reads in the TAAG statement.
The airline adds that the extra flight will be made by a commercial plane with the capacity to carry 289 passengers.
The three daily flights for the aforementioned dates will depart from Luanda at 08:50, 12:40 and 23:30.
“Typically, Lisbon is a destination with high demand at this stage of the year, attracting traffic from Portuguese-speaking countries, Latin America, Africa, among others”, justified the Angolan company.
Three TAAG daily flights plus TAP ones, isn't this leading to massive irregular migration to the Schengen space?

Portugal is the gateway for Africans and Brazilians to migrate to real EU countries. Portugal allows this shamelessly.

Not the first route I would have thought of as needing extra flights! Other than an opportunity to obtain immigration status for Angolans or are they legacy. Portuguese citizens? What is the two way attraction that requires such frequent service?
