About Azores Airlines
Azores Airlines (S4), also known as SATA International, is the international airline of the Azores archipelago, a Portuguese autonomous region in the mid-Atlantic.
Headquartered at Joao Paulo II Airport in Ponta Delgada on the island of Sao Miguel, the airline operates flights connecting the Azores to mainland Portugal, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Canada, and the United States. Azores Airlines is part of the SATA Group, which also operates inter-island flights within the Azores. The airline flies a fleet of Airbus A320 and A321neo aircraft.
The Azores have grown significantly as a nature tourism destination, attracting travellers interested in volcanic landscapes, whale watching, and outdoor activities. Azores Airlines serves a mix of returning Azorean residents, tourists from Europe and North America, and diaspora passengers.
Transatlantic flights to Boston, Toronto, and Oakland create a high volume of cabin belongings, with items including cameras, travel pillows, and personal electronics occasionally left in the cabin.
What to Do If You’ve Lost Something with Azores Airlines
Contact Azores Airlines Lost and Found as soon as you notice the item is missing. Provide your flight number, date, seat number, and a description of the item. The team is available around the clock via the support line and can coordinate with staff at Ponta Delgada and other airports in the network.
You can also submit a report through our platform, so that our team can contact and follow up with the lost property office(s) on your behalf.
Items Lost in Flight or at the Airport
Items left on the Azores Airlines aircraft should be reported to the airline. Items lost in the terminal at Joao Paulo II Airport or at another departure airport should be reported to that airport’s own lost property service. For losses at Lisbon, London, or Boston, contact those airports in addition to Azores Airlines.
Tips to Efficiently Report a Lost Item
- Contact the support line as soon as possible, as the 24-hour line is accessible from any time zone
- Have your flight number, seat number, and booking reference ready before calling
- For transatlantic flights, note whether the item was in the seat pocket, overhead bin, or lavatory
- Camera equipment and nature photography gear should be reported with full make and model details
- For losses at Ponta Delgada, visiting the airport in person can be the most efficient approach

Can You Recover Your Item After Your Flight ?
Azores Airlines’ support line is available around the clock. Whether you are still in the Azores or have returned to mainland Portugal, North America, or the UK, you can report your loss at any time. Filing early is the most effective approach given the airline’s relatively modest fleet size and strong customer service focus.
