Hi @tapairportugal 👋🏼please can you tell us when will you follow the fine example of @_azoresairlines and ban ALL shark fin, including the fins from commercially valuable species such as blue sharks and mako sharks? Please clarify your policy? 🙏🏼

It is not acceptable in 2024, in a world driven by technology, that tech companies of any sort do not take responsibility for their devices and how they are used or abused.

In our latest #climate article, @nirmasuper explores the first case of space washing.

Flying to #COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh🇪🇬?
Please choose an airline that doesn’t carry #shark fin as cargo and doesn’t support the cruel and unsustainable #sharkfin trade.🦈
Look before you book: https://t.co/XvBU0nu2th and support #SDG14 and #Biodiversity

It was an honour to attend this @united4wildlife 👇 event yesterday to meet with aviation, maritime and financial sector chiefs who are coming together to find new and innovative ways to protect wildlife, including sharks. ✈️🚢🏦
We thank HRH Prince of Wales for his leadership!

The shark fin trade is brutal, fins are sliced off live sharks and millions perish each year. Many airlines perpetuate this barbaric trade by facilitating transportation. @Avianca Be part of the solution and commit to a shark fin ban today?#FlyWithoutFins

[Fly Without Fins @flywithoutfins]

@tapairportugal @_azoresairlines Thanks, but to our understanding, your ban is only a partial ban.
What about fins of shark species like blue shark that are not on the @CITES Endangered Species list, but are on the @IUCNRedList as ‘Vulnerable’ or ‘Near Threatened’?
Are those banned too?

HUGE THANKS to @_azoresairlines for your blanket ban on ALL #sharkfin cargo – not just @CITES species! This shows you care for Atlantic Ocean marine ecosystems and helps us in our fight against the cruel, dirty, crime-ridden & unsustainable shark fin trade! 🙏🏼✈️🦈

Thank you @_azoresairlines for your commitment & leadership in turning the tide for #Sharks. Banning the transport of #Sharkfins helps to stop overexploitation of 🦈stocks being at the brink of collapse in the Atlantic & elsewhere 👉 https://t.co/Kzbneedp80

[Shark Guardian @Shark_Guardian]

It was great working with the super friendly team at @_azoresairlines to get their #shark fin cargo ban done.

Why can't all airlines be like @_azoresairlines?

Here's some positive Portuguese media coverage from @dnoticiaspt.

The shark fin trade is cruel, unsustainable and often ILLEGAL. Fins sliced off, live sharks drown, millions perish yearly. Many airlines enable this dirty trade by facilitating transportation.
@Avianca please step up and commit to a blanket ban on shark fin today?
