TAAG assumes difficulties with fleet maintenance and reduces flights

The national airline TAAG assumed, this Friday, difficulties in maintaining its aircraft fleet, due to the scarcity of foreign exchange, and decided to reduce domestic and international flights to adapt to the availability of aircraft.

According to a statement from TAAG, the carrier's customers and passengers have suffered "constraints" in recent days caused by the low operational availability of the fleet, as the company has been affected by the "current national macroeconomic context".

TAAG adds that, in the last five months, it has suffered "high constraints" in being able to replace the maintenance material consumed by the fleet, a situation that is due to "the continued limitations on payments abroad (exchange rates)".

The problem has affected the company's ability to make a greater number of aircraft available to meet the flight schedule, explains TAAG, formally apologizing to passengers.

The air carrier therefore decided to update the general flight schedule and make "adjustments" to the number of frequencies, both on domestic and international routes, adapting to aircraft availability.

"This temporary reduction in frequencies will allow the stabilization of services and greater reliability in fulfilling connections", continues the company, highlighting that it will also "analyze alternatives with operators of the national financial system".
