TAP Air Portugal will launch flights between Lisbon and Conakry, capital of Guinea, on July 3rd.

The Portuguese carrier will offer three weekly flights between the two capitals.

Tickets are already available for sale on the new flights which will depart from Lisbon on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday at 19:25 and arrive in Guinea’s capital at 23:10.

Return flights will depart from Conakry on Monday, Thursday and Sunday at 00:05 and arrive in the Portuguese capital at 05:30.

With the launch of a new route to Africa, TAP now covers 17 African cities in 11 countries.

In addition to Conakry (Guinea), the airline also flies to Luanda (Angola), Maputo (Mozambique), S. Tome (Sao Tome & Principe), Bissau (Guinea-Bissau), Praia, Sal, Sao Vicente and Boa Vista (Cape Verde), Marrakesh, Casablanca, Tangier and Fez (Morocco), Dakar (Senegal), Abidjan (Côte d’Ivoire), Accra (Ghana) and Lomé (Togo).

In 2018, TAP’s African routes saw a significant rise in the number of passengers: 116,000 more than in 2017, totalling 1.1 million passengers, which is a growth of 11.2 per cent compared to the previous year.

TAP – which is considered the World’s Leading Airline to Africa by voters at the World Travel Awards – thus continues to expand its offerings in all markets where it operates.
