How to get to Lisbon

By Plane

Lisbon is easy to get to. It is a short flight away from most European cities. There are only few intercontinental flights direct to Lisbon. We suggest flights via London or Frankfurt. Lisbon International Airport is only at 7 km from the city centre.

In Lisbon

BUS: The aerobus leaves every 20-30 minutes from 7am to 11pm for the city center, terminating at Cais do Sodré. Tickets which are valif all day, cost 3.95€ and can be bought onboard.

TAXI: A 20-minute journey into the center costs about 15€, with an extra charge for luggage. Prices increase by 20% at night, weekens, and bank holidays.
