Angola as a tempory base??
My company is about to send me down to Angola for a couple of weeks, tempory basing.
I believe we will be operating to/from Europe, and I'm thinking about suggesting heavy crewing, so we don't have to stay there!
What is the situation there these days, I remember it as being not so good, probably worse than Lagos!
I've considered refusing to go!
Thoughts, ideas??
Cheers

I was in Luanda last week and the place is getting cleaned up a bit since the end of the civil war. I even caught a metered taxi to and from a restaurant. The Hotel Tropico was a nice place to stay although a tad expensive at $160 per night.
For just a couple of weeks, should be no problem being in Angola. MUCH better than Lagos.
