[edit] History
The airline was first established in December 1990 under the name of OceanAir and in 1991 was authorized to operate air transport services as a non-scheduled carrier. SATA Air Acores became the major shareholder when OceanAir suspended flying in 1994 and later became the sole owner. On 20 February 1998 it was renamed SATA International and started operations on 8 April 1998. The airline is 100% owned by SATA Air Acores. Following its bid by public tender, SATA international was awarded scheduled routes from Ponta Delgada to Lisbon, Funchal and Porto. Today SATA assures a wide range of North Atlantic connections such as Faro to Toronto nonstop.
