''The launch of the route is part of our strategy of focusing on operations in Africa, which is a key growth area for the airline and also in line with the airline’s regional expansion programme,'' he said.
Captain Foon added Aero would also launch flights to Libreville (Gabon), Monrovia (Liberia), Freetown (Sierra Leone) and Brazzaville (Congo) before the end of the year.
Aero currently serves a largely domestic network with flights to Accra, Ghana its only regional route.
