After a 3 year hiatus due to USD43million renovation works which resulted in the completion of a 30m x 2'090m long runway and a 2 storey terminal covering over 5'000 square metres, Angolan national carrier Transportes Aéreos Angolanos better known as TAAG (DT), is beginning 29 October, set to return to Soyo in northern Zaire Province, Angola.
A triangle flight routed Luanda - Mbanza Congo - Soyo - Cabinda is also scheduled to operate within the next week or so, but no schedule has been logged as yet.

Meanwhile, following its USD43million facelift, Dundo Airport, in northeastern Lunda-Norte province near the border with The Democratic Republic of the Congo, is also awaiting service from TAAG.
Featuring new check-in counters, four embarkation/disembarkation gates, immigration, a new control tower fully equipped with communication
systems and a luggage hall, Dondo is the latest airport to be opened in Angola as part of the Government's efforts at rehabilitating decrepit infrastructure in addition to "correcting some regional asymmetries and to reinforce national cohesion."
