Sata Azores Airlines Flight Cancellations: When are they Liable?
When Sata Azores Airlines can escape liability: Sata Azores Airlines claims if a flight was cancelled due to events outside of its control; for example bad weather, or issues at the airport. Such events are typically called extraordinary circumstances and in such cases, you are not entitled to a Sata Azores Airlines missed flight refund.
All airlines will generally try to book you on the next available flight at no additional charge, in the case of cancelled flights. You may agree to the proposed flight or request another replacement flight, or demand reimbursement if you are not happy with any of the options proposed.
Note: If your rebooked scheduled departure arrives at a similar time to your original departure time, you're not entitled compensation. The law is fair and allows airlines not to pay compensation if you can reach your destination with minimum inconvenience. In most cases, passengers who have a cancelled flight will have valid claims for a Sata Azores Airlines flight compensation.
An airport employees’ strike is beyond anyone's control. Learn more about cancellation compensation.
When Sata Azores Airlines cannot escape liability: When Sata Azores Airlines cancel flights, EU 261 Regulation on air passenger rights are clear: You must be put on an alternative flight or provided with a full flight refund.
Also, if you were notified about the flight cancellation less than 14 days before your date of departure, you may be able to receive up to €600 per person in compensation. Additionally, you may receive Sata Azores Airlines flight delay compensation if you arrived 3+ hours later than the scheduled arrival time of your initial flight.

Sata Azores Airlines Flight Refund policy
A flight compensation and a refund are two different things. Regulations allow you to receive both: a cancellation refund and compensation.
In case of a cancellation, an airline will try to re-book you on the similar flight, but if that becomes impossible, a cancellation refund will be a full cash refund. Generally, your claim would succeed, providing there were no extraordinary circumstances beyond airline control.
If Sata Azores Airlines cancels your flight to extraordinary circumstances (such as Covid travel restrictions or a serious illness) and you were offered no replacement flight, you can obtain a ticket refund in full, since your flights booked were not available.
Types of ticket refunds: A full refund must be in cash or credit. Vouchers are allowed only if you specifically agree to it. We do not recommend accepting vouchers due to short expiry dates and potential restrictions on redemption.
Note: If Sata Azores Airlines offers a replacement flight with approximately the same arrival time and you decide not to take it, there is a possibility of you losing the right to get both compensation and a ticket refund.
Rule of thumb: you can generally reject alternative flights and receive a refund in full, if a new replacement flight arrives 3+ hours later from your initial scheduled arrival time.

We were told that the flight was cancelled due to a mechanical error, the landing gear was failing. We were rebooked for a flight the next day at 4am that had a 13 hour layover in Lisbon and finally arrived at our destination over 25 hours from the original time. We missed an entire day of work which we had no PTO for. I am a trader and every day in the market is EXTREMELY important and I suffered great monetary loss (tens of thousands of dollars) due to my absence on the desk.
They said it would be delayed for 30mins first and then got a followup email 20mins before boarding the gate that its 1hour delayed. But eventually the flight took off after 2hours of the initial departure time
No reason given for flight delay. Other flights to US cities left that day, however our flight to Toronto was canceled and they put us on another flight the following day. Me and my wife had to miss one day of work due to this. We had to purchase accommodation and food for the one extra night, airline did not assist.
