Air Algérie (AH) via their Facebook page have pencilled in February 5, 2014 as their planned launch date for twice weekly A330-200 flights to Sao Paolo from Algiers. Not to be outdone, Egyptair (MS) has also stated it is "studying" a potential Cairo - Sao Paolo service but has yet to commit to anything. Presently, only TAAG Angolan Airlines (DT), South African Airways (SA) and TACV Cabo Verde Airlines (VR) connect the two continents.
