If you’re thinking about visiting any time soon, you might be wondering what your best way of getting here is.

City break or flight only to Lisbon?

We would recommend considering an ATOL protected city break to Lisbon, as this will often result in better value than booking a flight only.

Besides, the final price will include your flights, hotel, full baggage allowance and often more.

easyJet holidays especially have some great options to Lisbon, and you can book directly with them with the knowledge you’ll have your flight and holiday managed by the same company.

That said, if you’re booking with an airline who don’t offer package holidays, like Ryanair, we recommend Loveholidays as one of the fastest growing, ATOL protected online tour operators with a good reputation.

With that said, there are also good reasons for booking a flight only, for example if you want the additional flexibility in terms of where you stay using the likes of Booking.com or Airbnb.

Portugal’s second city

Portugal’s second city Porto and is also well covered by airports in the UK.

And it’s just three hours from Lisbon by train, so you could also consider checking the latest schedule for direct flights to Porto from the UK.

Conclusion

As illustrated in the table above, there are a good range of airports that fly directly to Lisbon from the UK.

Plenty of airlines operate this route, and the vast majority fly here all year round to the Portuguese capital.

The average flight time varies from around 2 and a half hours to just over 3 hours depending on your departure airport.

We’ve compiled this information using flight aggregator tools such as Google Flights, whilst cross-checking these flight schedules directly with the airlines and travel companies mentioned above, some of which we have affiliations with.

And because the flight aggregators do not always catch every single airline covering every single route, we’ve also researched whether there are any other airlines potentially flying directly from the UK to Lisbon in order to try and capture the full picture.
