Madeira Airport (FNC) is notorious for its challenging landing conditions, primarily due to the frequent occurrence of strong winds, which have been particularly intense recently.

TAP Portugal had initially submitted flight schedules for up to 5 weekly flights during the Northern Summer 2024 season.
The German flag carrier Lufthansa (LH) and Air France-KLM have shown interest in TAP Air Portugal (TP) after the Portuguese government’s announcement of its intention to sell a majority stake in the national airline.
A first for the Portuguese airline, TAP Air Portugal recently performs a flight using sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). The service was operated with an Airbus A321neo and flew passengers from Lisbon to Ponta Delgada. The completion of this flight marks the start of a strategic alliance between the airline and ANA Aeroportos de Portugal for growing and producing sustainable aviation fuel.
