West African carrier Cabo Verde Airlines is looking to restart service to the U.S.

In a filing registering additional trade names with the U.S. Transportation Department, the Cape Verde-based airline said it plans to launch service to Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport on March 31.

The filing did not say where in Cape Verde the Rhode Island-bound flights will operate from, or how frequently the service will be offered.

Cabo Verde Airlines previously linked Rhode Island with Cape Verde’s capital, Praia, on Santiago Island. It operated the route with a Boeing 757. At other times, Cabo Verde served Boston and Washington Dulles.

The airline’s main hub is at Amílcar Cabral International Airport on Sal Island.

Cabo Verde Airlines currently flies within Cape Verde and to destinations in mainland Africa, the U.K., and Europe.
