FLIGHTS TO MADEIRA FROM MONTIJO ARE LESS LIKELY

Planes bound for Madeira must continue to leave Lisbon Airport.
TAP will continue to operate to Madeira from Lisbon Airport, even after advancing the Montijo airbase as a support terminal to Portela.
According to Bernardo Trindade, Lisbon Airport will remain as a choice to bridge the connection between medium and long-haul passengers. Trips to Madeira from Montijo may take place on another flight, but the connections will continue to be secured from Lisbon, said the non-executive director of TAP’s Board of Directors, during the hearing of the Eventual Commission for Policy Inquiry of Management of TAP in relation to Madeira.
