Angola’s $3,8 billion Agostinho Neto International Airport (ANIA) will be inaugurated in Luanda on November 10. Developed by China’s Aviation Industry Corporation, the airport will elevate Angola as a regional aviation hub and fuel economic growth by expanding domestic flights and enhancing business connectivity.
José Paulo Nobrega, ANIA’s Coordinator of the Operational Office, said “Its operation will create thousands of direct and indirect jobs—the creation of the airport city will be a center for development in our city, focusing on sustainability and urban mobility.”
Comprising a terminal with a handling capacity of 15 million passengers per year and cargo handling capacity of 130,000 tons per annum during the first phase, ANIA will replace the existing Quatro de Fevereiro International Airport as the country’s main international airport.
