Lisbon airport changes name
IOP
From Sunday Lisbon’s Portela airport is to be formally known as Humberto Delgado.
The official name-changing ceremony took place at the airport on Sunday morning.
The alteration aims to honour a notable figure of national political history and of the twentieth century.
General Humberto Delgado is known not only as a freedom fighter and a champion of democracy during the dictatorship years, but also as a pioneer in modern commercial aviation creation.
