TAP president remains in office without renewed mandate

Observador4 September 2026 at 13:39

Luís Rodrigues's term as TAP's president ended at the end of 2024. However, the leader of the Portuguese airline remains fully in office, continuing to exercise the role without his mandate having been renewed.

This situation means that Luís Rodrigues remains at the helm of TAP without a formal decision on renewal or replacement by the government or the board of directors. The company thus continues without an updated mandate for its president.

Regarding contractual conditions, Luís Rodrigues maintains the same remuneration conditions he had during his previous term. This continuity of functions without formal renewal raises questions about the company's governance process.

TAP, as Portugal's flagship airline, is going through a period of uncertainty in its executive leadership, with the president ensuring continuity of operations without having been formally confirmed or renewed in the position.

The 'never-ending work' of the Mediterranean corridor still has no date for its commissioning: Adif explains the reasons

The Mediterranean railway corridor continues without a defined date for commissioning, with Adif explaining the reasons for the delays. The start of the school year is directly affecting the number of passengers on Cercanías services between Castelló and València on line C6. Renfe announced that during this month, up to seven additional services will be gradually implemented, even using second-hand trains from the Civia 465 model, coming from Cercanías services in Madrid, which in some cases are already more than two decades old, which has generated controversy.
