The Azorean group is in consultation with employees to set up SATA Handling. The spin-off process should be completed this month and privatisation will start afterwards, fulfilling Brussels' 2022 plan.
SATA's management confirmed today that it is “analysing” the jury's recommendation to reject the proposal by the company Azores Airlines and said it will refer the case to the Government of the Azores.

The proposal is being examined by the tender panel, chaired by economist and university professor Augusto Mateus.
SATA today launched the “Azores Mission” to prioritise boosting flights from the archipelago to the mainland in summer and to discontinue routes that “showed lower performance”, expecting to operate 800 weekly flights with origins and destinations in the region.
