The victim, suffering from a complete rupture of the Achilles tendon, was transported by helicopter to the airport on Terceira Island and subsequently taken to the hospital.

The Angra do Heroísmo Chamber of Commerce and Industry points out that the “excessive complexity of the electronic process” leads to “frequent errors, rejections, and delays” in the processing of applications.

In the Azores, the maximum fare supported by residents for round-trip flights to the mainland is 119 euros, and the fare supported by students is 89 euros.

The decision was considered “serious and deeply irresponsible” by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Angra do Heroísmo. Employees are protesting the privatisation of the company and its ground handling services.
