Cabo Verde Debuts Boeing 737s Abroad

Archipelago to See First Operator of Late-Model Boeing MAX

Cabo Verde showed off its newest aircraft with a shiny new livery, a 737-8 clad in the Cape Verdean carrier's colors.

While the overall coloration isn't quite as sumptuous as the full-body colorations seen on a number of other operators, the teal, purple, and gold coloration is something new for a change. The aircraft was unveiled as part of the carrier's new "take-off" rebranding, intending to raise awareness of the line's aim to "reconnect the Cape Verdean diaspora and boost tourism for the island nation from Africa, Europe, North America and South America." Armed with a renewed fleet, Cabo Verde hopes to expand back to its high-water mark and occupy the routes it did before 2020. 

“This is a significant moment for Cabo Verde Airlines,” said Sara Pires, Cabo Verde Airlines’ CEO and president. “With the addition of the Boeing 737-8, we continue to expand our fleet to pre-pandemic levelsThe delivery of an airplane with the capabilities of the 737-8 allows us to meet the growing travel demand to our archipelago country at the crossroads of four continents.”

“The 737 MAX family is perfectly suited for Cabo Verde Airlines to serve prominent markets in Africa, Europe and North and South America, providing it with enhanced capability and flexibility across its network,” said Anbessie Yitbarek, Boeing vice president of Commercial Sales and Marketing for Africa. “The 737-8, with its versatility and fuel efficiency, will support Cabo Verde Airlines’ goal of competing to win back market share.”
