Binter flight returns to Funchal after two failed landing attempts in Porto Santo

Binter flight NT4932, en route from Funchal to Porto Santo, was unable to land on the Ilha Dourada due to adverse weather conditions. The aircraft made two approach attempts to the runway, but both were unsuccessful.

The captain decided to return to Madeira International Airport, causing significant inconvenience to passengers. Light rain at the time considerably reduced visibility near the runway.

There is a possibility that the airline will attempt the connection to Porto Santo again later this morning.
