Cabral (SID) on Sal, 2km
(1 mile) south of Espargos, is the only airport with a runway long enough to
take jets; there are eight others throughout the islands. Airport facilities
include a bank, duty-free shop, refreshments and tourist information. Taxis and
airport buses are available to the city centre and to resort areas.
A new airport, Francisco Mendes Airport, is being built in Praia, Santiago. It
is due for completion in Jun 2001.
