Activities at the Feira de Santana Airport in Bahia have been temporarily suspended following an environmental inspection by the Municipal Secretariat of Environment. The inspection revealed that the airport, operated by AFS Aeroporto de Feira de Santana S. A., has been operating with an environmental license that expired in December 2025 without a renewal request.

Inspectors also identified failures to comply with established environmental conditions regarding waste management, risk control, and impact mitigation. Jaciara Costa, the Municipal Secretary of Environment, stated that the suspension is a “preventive and temporary measure,” noting that operations may resume once the company regularizes its licensing and demonstrates compliance with all outstanding requirements.
