Azul Conecta inaugurated a new flight between Cajazeiras, in the interior of Paraíba, and Recife, in Pernambuco. The launch of the new route marks the return of the commercial airline network in the city after 60 years without regular flights in the region. The trip will be made three times a week, in both directions, always on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, with Cessna Grand Caravan planes.
Cajazeiras is located 470 km from the capital João Pessoa and has a population of 62 thousand inhabitants, being the seventh most populous in the state. The launch of the flight responds to a demand for the end of air isolation and for the interconnection of municipalities in the interior to the capitals, since the presence of air routes directly influences economic development, enabling business and the expansion of tourism. Recognized as a culturally rich city, it is often called the “City that taught Paraíba to read” because of its strong educational tradition. One of the main tourist attractions is the Nossa Senhora da Piedade Cathedral Church, an example of Brazilian religious architecture.
In addition, the city is close to the state of Ceará, about 40 km from Icó. The city of Sousa, famous for its paleontological riches, is less than 90 km away. Cajazeiras has a strong local economy, with many businesses focused on agriculture, retail and services. With regard to education, Cajazeiras is home to several higher education institutions. The Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG) has a campus in the city. There is also the Federal Institute of Paraíba (IFPB), known for its engineering and technology programs. Faculdade Santa Maria (FSM) is the first private college in the city and stands out in the health area, especially in nursing and medicine.
