Mario, Thank you for the reply. I am aware that one can go from London to the Azores and this would be easier for us but because of the type ticket we are going from the US to Europe on, I have to take British Airways from London to Lisbon first and then I am going to Terceira but because I will

I want to thank everyone for their replies on my SATA questions. I, too, have heard it is less expensive to purchase tickets within the islands while you are there but I didn't want to take any chances of not getting a seat as my schedule is tight. Maybe I will be a little more carefree next ti

I don't recall anything about my seats on SATA from Terceira to Sao Miguel. I've been to the Azores 4 times, only one time I had a message that my flight home was to leave later that originally planned. That would have been Azores Express between Ponta Delgada and Boston. Cheri --~--~-~

Elaine, my experience with SATA interisland flights is that they do not have assigned seats.  I believe that was the same with my Lisbon to Terceira flilghts.    As for delays and cancellations, that can happen without notice if the weather is bad.  I spent half a day in the airport in Terceira
