In total, the company will have three weekly frequencies on the route, which will be its first operation with a twin-aisle aircraft, marking the end of the single fleet of Boeing 737s. The operation should take place until the end of October, with a scheduled resumption in March 2027.
On the flight to Lisbon, operations should begin in October this year.
In addition to the two, the company will also fly to Paris and Orlando, but there are no confirmed dates yet
