TAP Air Portugal [TP] new routes and changes (later 2018 onward)
per TP press release on the OPO expansion + FLR from LIS there is a footnote that Nouakchott will be the next destination to be launched (still 2018 as the press release if from late 2017)
On an separate note, if Malabo was ever mulled this is probably the time for TP to go for it:
per airline route
Next year the company intends to offer flights between Lisbon and Nouakchott, capital of Mauritania, a service that is currently awaiting government authorisation.
per airline route
oneWorld member Iberia this month is ending service on Madrid – Malabo route, as the airline closed reservation last week. Last flight is scheduled to depart Madrid on 21JAN18, Malabo on 22JAN18. This route is currently served by Airbus A319, 4 times a week.

I can't say I'm excited. Crappy service and uncomfortable seats and pricing that won't be super competitive vs. Level .... maybe I'll change my mind on this, but right now I'm not so sure I'll be taking LIS-SFO non-stop.

Great news, and isn't SATA / Air Açores starting (or recently started) a flight to OAK (or is it SJC) from Ponta Delgada (or is it Terceira)? LOL anyway from somewhere in the Azores to somewhere in the SF Bay Area although I think it may only be once per week.

Not sue I'd want to fly them to SFO when there are more attractive options from BCN.
