« the reopening of the route to Dakar offers a much awaited travel opportunity for the large Senegalese community living in the province of Bergamo and more extensively in the Lombardy region and in the areas served by the airport of Bergamo’s motorway connections – Giacomo Cattaneo emphasizes, Aviation Sales Director at Sacbo -. This is a much sought-after route, including as a result of the economic and commercial ties between northern Italy and Senegal. In addition, the direct connection with Dakar—a flight covering a distance of approximately 4.300 km—is the longest route departing from the airport of Milan Bergamo“.
Giancarlo Celani, Chief Commercial Officer & Deputy C.E.O. at Albastar, comments: “It is a pleasure to have been named as the airline entrusted with the rights to the route to Senegal with two weekly flights departing from Milan Bergamo airport, which is increasingly distinguishing itself as a result of the attention reserved to passengers and its strategic location, thus allowing us to hope for excellent results in terms of traffic. In addition, we are the first leisure airline at the airport with 15 destinations served during the summer season, while the new long-haul flight to Dakar could be a precursor of more extensive plans towards the north-western African region“.
