Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Finding my great grandfather
Gloria, I think your explanation makes sense, (Flores belonging to the Horta District and being referenced that way often).

I also read that at one time the District of Horta was made up of 4 islands that included Flores. My grandfather insisted it was Flores Horta so I am just repeating what he always said. Thought maybe he knew something that I didn”t. There were American whaling ships with Portuguese workers that went to Hawaii. From which island my grandfather left, I don’t know.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Azores Trip
Thanks Joao! Hope all is well. To add to your comments The Portuguese side of the ATMs may not charge, but I did get charged on withdrawals from non-credit union banks (Banco Espírito Santo is my example). As to the extra functionality, you are correct, I was unable to charge my phone at the ATM and needed to go to a store. Which is a good point concerning the phones. If you do get a Portuguese SIM, it can be charged at the original store or you can go to many stores advertising the service. You will want to keep your packaging with the SIM number on it for easy reference when charging. Concerning the planes, my basic message is to take the delays with patience. We flew in and out of Terceira and had delays both ways. Many of the seasoned travelers simply accepted the delay as a part of flying with SATA. The delay on departure from the Azores was due to mechanical difficulties with the plane and they had to contract for another plane from Atlas Air. It was a much larger plane and made the trip from Terceira to Oakland without the Toronto fueling stop. We enjoyed the flight much more and got to spend almost two more days on Terceira. Oh, we were able to see the bull fight in Altares with the extra time. One of the unplanned highlights of our trip was working with the taxi driver to figure out where the event was (way out in the country) and then enjoying all of the people in the mountains with a view of Graciosa in the background. So, things can work out even with the delays. Just set expectations appropriately.

In Portugal, because all the banks were Government owned in the 1980s when ATMs started to show up, they decided to create a separate company to run the ATM network. As a result, all the ATM machines in Portugal belong to this network, so the concept of charging for widthdrawals is simply alien to the Portuguese. There's no such thing, period. As a side-effect, these machines are also the best ATMs I've ever found in the world (yes, the average ATM in the deep Azores will probably be a lot better than the one from your US bank in the midst of SIlicon Valley). However, you'll probably not notice it, as all the advanced features require a Portuguese bank card. Foreign cards will probaly allow you to widthraw money and maybe charge your phones (and also maybe to buy train tickets - I highly doubt it will allow you to buy concert tickets). I highly advise against AMEX. Don't bother bringing one if you're coming to Europe. Make sure your card is Visa or Mastercard and you should be OK with our ATMs and in-store payment terminals. As to SATA, the delays are really not their fault. Those are islands in the middle of the North Atlantic, if the winds go above a certain level, for your safety and theirs, they will simply not take off. Have some flexibility in your plans, and make sure that you make it to the island of your US return flight a few days in advance. Flying to and from Terceira is easier as the runway there is one of the largest in the Azores (it was designated as a Space Shuttle abort landing site), but do account for possible delays in your São Jorge / Pico connections.

I researched them and found them very poorly reviewed (unable to be used and drained of funds). Be sure to talk to your bank. Ask them if your ATM card can be used in Portugal. Give them your travel dates to ensure you have no problems when traveling. Also do the same for your credit card.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Azores Trip
Hello Bill, I remember that I wrote to you last year before you went with some advice for taking young people to the AzoresI see now that we must have just missed you as we were on the flight that left one day early OUT of Oakland to Terceira (July 20) and were on the Atlas Air plane. We got a call mid-week that our plane would not be leaving on the Monday but on Sundaywhich took a little shuffling. We did end up enjoying the extra time on Terceira but on the way back home, our plane started to have mechanical problems when we were way out on the oceanI have never been so scared! We had to turn back and then circle for quite awhile to burn off fuel. Sata put us up in a great place Quinta do Martelo, so there was a silver lining, but not sure if I am over the scare yet! Some of us fell asleep after the plane took off and woke up to the realization that there was something very wrong. Our little ten year old grandson smiled and said Oh yeah, we are going back!!.the bliss of youth! I hear that there are other airlines going in there now which I think will be a good thing! Good tips on the SIM card, I have never figured that one out. It would have been nice to have a phone sometimes. We just accessed our email and the web when we were in the hotels or anyplace free wifi. We had the same experience with American Expressalmost no one took it. Our Visa was usually good except sometimes my husband was convinced that it was not that it did not work, but that they really wanted cash instead:) I think the bulls on a rope pretty much run all summer, not just in Altaresyou just have to find out what town will be having the festivities. We have always managed to see one on the several trips that we have made. Finding a safe place to view this can be trickywe have had help from both taxi drivers and twice from a wonderful guide that we hired, Mario Rego, on Terceira.
