SATA: brands it owns and its ownership tree
SATA is a state-owned company headquartered in Ponta Delgada, Portugal that owns 2 consumer brands.[1]
Holding company of the SATA Group, based in the Azores. The group's site describes it as made up of two airlines and an aerodrome-management body in the Azores archipelago. The group's 2019 annual reports record SATA Air Açores as 100% held by the Regional Government of the Azores, and Azores Airlines (SATA Internacional) as 100% held by SATA Air Açores; those reports pre-date the creation of SATA Holding, so check current shareholdings. In September 2026 SATA Holding was running a privatisation of at least 75% of Azores Airlines under a restructuring plan approved by the European Commission, and had received five non-binding offers on 21 September 2026. SATA Handling, a ground-handling business, is not an airline and is not listed.
