Wind forces the cancellation of 11 flights at Madeira Airport

dnoticias.pt8 September 2026 at 18:20

At least 11 flights, six arrivals and five departures, were cancelled this Tuesday at Madeira International Airport – Cristiano Ronaldo, due to the strong wind that affected air movement on the island. The count was made at 6 PM.

Among the cancelled flights was flight ENT 7009, operated by the airline Enter Air and coming from Warsaw, which had a scheduled landing at 1:20 PM, but ended up being rerouted to Porto Santo Airport.

The flight EJU 6833, operated by easyJet, also failed to land on the runway at Madeira Airport, having also been affected by the adverse weather conditions.

Airport authorities monitored the situation throughout the day, but the strong wind remained a prohibitive factor for the safe operation of various aircraft at the main airport in the autonomous region of Madeira.

Scam uses fake R$1,050 benefit to deceive victims

Cybercriminals are using a fake benefit called Auxílio Reconstrução 2026, promising R$1,050, to carry out scams. Kaspersky identified three fraudulent websites that mimic the visual identity of the official government portal. The scam takes advantage of the name of a real benefit created in 2024 for victims of floods in Rio Grande do Sul, which paid R$5,100 in a single installment. The Ministry of Integration and Regional Development issued an official alert clarifying that there is no new Auxílio Reconstrução of R$1,050 and advising the population to be wary of messages promising benefits through access to links or providing personal data on unofficial pages.
