Briefings
Following a failed initial attempt, the Spdh, now owned by Menzies and no longer holding TAP shares, received a new aviation license to operate at Lisbon, Porto, and Faro airports. This regulatory approval marks a significant turnaround after the company previously struggled with operational challenges.

- The Spdh, previously owned by TAP, now holds a new aviation license to operate at Lisbon, Porto, and Faro airports.
- The Spdh is currently managed by Menzies and no longer holds any TAP shares.
Context
The Spdh, a major Portuguese airline, faced operational difficulties that led to a failed initial application for new airport licenses. The subsequent regulatory approval by the aviation regulator marks a critical turning point for the company's expansion.
