Cabo Verde Express is a Cape Verdean private charter airline operating regional services between the islands in Cape Verde and from Cape Verde to the African continent. The carrier is based at Amílcar Cabral International Airport , Cape Verde. It was established in 1998 by Jean-Christophe Bartz, airline transport pilot and business man with many interests within the airline industry in West Africa.[1] Operations started with a single Cessna Caravan (D4-CBJ). A few months later were introduced the czech mades Let 410. The airline employed 14 pilots (2 freelancers).[2] The little airline grew fast under the command of Captain JC Bartz and actively contributed to the turism development in the island of Boa Vista. Captain JC Bartz sold the airline back in 2007 to the portuguese group Omni aviacao (Owner of White airways). Its head office is at the Amílcar Cabral International Airport in Espargos, Sal.
