Find correct name
The airport is not listed as João Paulo II anywhere.
The airport's own website calls itself simply Ponta Delgada, and has no mention of João Paulo.
Template:Regions of Portugal: statistical (NUTS3) subregions and intercommunal entities are confused; they are not the same in all regions, and should be sublisted separately in each region: intermunicipal entities are sometimes larger and split by subregions (e.g. the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon has two subregions), some intercommunal entities are containing only parts of subregions. All subregions should be listed explicitly and not assume they are only intermunicipal entities (which accessorily are not statistic subdivisions but real administrative entities, so they should be listed below, probably using a smaller font: we can safely eliminate the subgrouping by type of intermunicipal entity from this box).
With respect, there are some very curious statements made in the introductory comments to this article that should be corrected. I am an American of continental Portuguese descent, 12 generations confirmed. My family, from the north central coastal region, has been making authentic Portuguese sweet bread for at least 200 years. We have written fragments of a 19th century recipe. I would suggest some changes to the description of this remarkable food found here.
First, sweet bread does not turn into "fular" by the addition of eggs every Easter. Fular is an entirely different bread. Sweet bread with an egg topping is common at Easter but that doesn't make it Fular. The recipies for these different breads is, of course, different. For one thing traditional fular is made with cinnimon.
Second, I have NEVER heard of any Portuguese family using honey to make sweet bread. And believe me, the variation of ingredients for this product among folks who are not continental Portuguese is stunning, but honey? That has to take some sort of prize. Portuguese sweet bread is made with sugar. Period.
Third, if you want to publish an article about Hawaiian bread, that's fine. I've had it and it's very good. But PLEASE don't call it Portuguese sweet bread. The Hawaian version of a traditional European bread found in the western Iberian peninsula, exported to the Azores and Madeira, then carried to Hawaii hundreds of years later is not the same thing.
The preceding comment is typical of the "Mainland" Portuguese. While I agree that "honey" is not part of the ingredient list in Massa Sovada, I don't agree with their interpretation of "Hawaiian" Sweetbread as "NOT" Portuguese. It is as different as "Portuguese" is to "Azorean". Our recipes differ but the bases are similar. Simple as that. Hawaiian bread differs in flavor and leavening, simply due to the amount of sugar and the way they "mass produce" the product. As in every baked good, something is lost in Mass production. Pristine as a corner bakery product, but once mass produced the mixing, the ingredients lose quality and the "handmade" touch. If the "Portuguese" product is as exclusive as my predecessor states then maybe the "Portuguese" or as in my case "Azorean" people should attempt it. I celebrate the Hawaiian's attempt to bring our tradition to the masses.

It's been over 10 years. I, a native of Hawaii, hope I've done this page some justice. @Grandcross @Laurie Alves
