  • If you can plan ahead, the sweet spot for booking your flight is 14 weeks before your trip. KAYAK data shows fares in this window are around 17% lower than last-minute bookings (made within 2 weeks of departure). Not ready to commit? Set a Price Alert and we'll let you know when prices change.
  • If your dates are flexible, January usually has the best deals, while June tends to be the priciest. The best-time-to-travel chart on this page shows how prices move across the year.
  • Wednesday is usually the cheapest day to fly, about 12% cheaper than Saturday, the priciest day. If your dates are flexible, that's an easy way to save. If not, try nearby airports or a layover instead.
  • If arriving on time matters more than price, consider flying with one of the most punctual airlines flying to Portugal: TAP AIR PORTUGAL, Delta, United Airlines or Azores Airlines.
  • If you're looking to save, Santa Cruz da Graciosa Graciosa Island (GRW) has had the lowest fares over the past 12 months. Just remember to factor in the cost of getting to your final destination.
  • Lisbon is the most popular destination in Portugal. Start your trip here and then check out these other places KAYAK travelers love: Porto, Albufeira and Funchal.
  • Consider a layover to Portugal, it can cost less than flying nonstop. Stockholm Arlanda (ARN) is typically the cheapest place to connect.
  • The Republic of Portugal marks the western edge of the European continent and, along with the islands off its coast, are serviced by several international airports. These airports include Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS), otherwise known as Lisbon Airport, Faro Airport (FAO) in the south and Francisco Sa Carneiro Airport (OPO), or Porto Airport, in the north.
  • The northern region of Portugal includes the districts of Porto, Braga, Vila Real and Braganca and is home to Peneda-Geres National Park (Braga) and Montesinho Natural Park (Braganca). Porto Airport is the hub for this area, so if you wish to visit, it’s best to plan your flight from the US to Portugal to terminate there.
  • Coimbra, Leiria, Santarem, Castelo Branco and Portalegre districts mark the central region of Portugal and lie between Porto and Lisbon. In order to save yourself travel time, it’s better to use Porto Airport for Coimbra and Lisbon Airport for Santarem, Castelo Branco and Portalegre, as it’s closer.
  • The historical province of Extremadura is situated on the southwestern coast of Portugal along the Atlantic Ocean and is where the capital city of Lisbon is located. Other districts within reach of Lisbon Airport include Santarem, Setubal, Evora and Lisbon district itself.
  • The Algarve marks the southern boundary of Portugal where it meets the Gulf of Cadiz and is home to Faro Airport, which is the regional hub for flights from the US to Portugal. It provides access, not only to the Algarve, but to the district of Beja, and is also a launching point to explore the islands of the Madeira Archipelago.
  • Lisbon International Airport (LIS) is the main international airport of Portugal, located in the capital city. It is the busiest and one of the largest airports in Southern Europe. It is a gateway to Portugal and receives most flights from the U.S.
  • If you are landing at Madeira Airport (FNC), you should consider having travel insurance in the case of cancellation or diversions. The airport experiences very strong, harsh winds through the mountains that may cause flights to be diverted to Port Santo (PXO) or even back to Lisbon. The mountainous setting in the Atlantic makes it experience plenty of winds and mountain waves.
  • Faro Airport (FAO) serves Southern Portugal. If you are visiting this area as a holiday destination, you should consider taking your flight to this airport. Flying to this airport places you close to top tourist destinations such as the Algarve. In Algarve, you can enjoy the Mediterranean climate along the coastline landscape, where you'll find the Nature Park of Ria Formosa.
  • Lisbon International Airport has two terminals: one that handles international flights or domestic departures and another for low-cost airline departures. The two terminals are linked by the free airport shuttle.
  • If you’re flying into Lisbon Airport and looking to avoid the busy crowds at the airport, book a meet-and-greet service. Your travel needs will be handled by the multilingual greeters and the porters. Experience a warm welcome with the personalized name board to ease your movement in the airport.

Gate agent and flight attendants were efficient, but more stern than warm.

The only issue is that the plane was HOT. This was not the case on my first flight so not sure why, but thankfully I had a portable fan with me. Everything else was great!

13 hour delay stuck in Detroit and missed a day of meetings. It was terrible

My flight was so delayed I would’ve missed my connection and had to cancel my trip

Seemingly unnecessary delays were compounded by a lack of communication from the flight crew which turned a four hour delay into an overly stressful experience.

I like Delta. I dislike the volume of announcements from the crew. They are not always easy to hear and typically repetitive.

I think the crew makes way too many announcements that are: 1) hard to hear in some cases and 2) repetitive. This detracts from entertainment and concentration if working or reading.

Everything was great. The only thing that wasn’t was the breakfast calzone which was basically warm bread. It was very tasteless and wasn’t good at all

Great crew. Comfortable seating. Nice overhead bin space. My app didn't allow me to check in for my flight to BOS. When I called Support, they didn't fix it, but just told me to check in at the airport. Seat back entertainment was great. Could be better if the audio could connect to Bluetooth.

Overall Delta was amazing from automatically booking us on the next flight once we missed our connection due to a delay to the constant communication throughout the entire process. We will continue to fly Delta going forward more and pay a little more if needed.

Premium economy was worth it. Great seats and good food.

Food was good. Clean aircraft. But why do the airlines make the seats so narrow?! Your executives should have ride in a seat so restrictive for 11 hours and see how miserable it is! When.we got to MUC they changed my boarding gate 3 times for my next flight!!!!

Good flight, even though there was a delay, still got back on time

Santa Barbara is a super small and easy airport. Breezed through rental car return, breezed through Security, ordered a coffee and muffin and to my gate in less than 30 minutes. Maybe because it was a small airport we got the oldest plane. Hardly any overhead space and absolutely zero internet. Its NFL Sunday man! That hurt.

We were delay because so many bags needed to be gate checked and it was disappointing not to have outlets in the seats for such a long flight.

There were no vegan options for first class. Even though we were promised the satellite internet for free, we received NO wifi at all. Even though we were promised a 20-min early arrival, we ended up over 30 mins late.

No water or beverage was provided. I had to ask for water. The sole flight attendant had more interest in selling the credit card. In addition when we got to Dulles the plane and gate were misaligned and it took at least 15 minutes to get off the plane.

Improve the food offerings and cabin seating. My wife would prefer to fly another airline, even with a connection for a more comfortable trip. A 737-8 should not be scheduled for a 6 hour segment, which turned into 7.5 hours due to the origin ground delay.

OK, I don’t expect much from coach class. Everything basically is pretty lousy. But at least I expect my bloody luggage to get from A to B. Tap Airlines lost my luggage and it has been more than 24 hours in Lisbon and they still have not located my luggage. On top of that, they are incredibly unhelpful. They feel actually dismissive. This lousy customer service.

Food was poorly timed and not good.. Hand held snacks, really. I kept asking for water and never got any. Service was rushed for a 7-hour flight.

The in flight meal was absolutely delicious. One thing I noted was that the meals weren’t just prepackaged tv dinner style options but were actual prepared meals you could tell were cooked that day in a kitchen and individually packaged for the flight.

The flight took off two hours late. What was good was that I was getting an information on this earlier in the day. The lounge agent sent the passengers to the gate way too early. That was annoying. The food aboard was disgusting. The service aboard was okay. The seats were good. Overall, it's a very mediocre experience. Well, it's not a five-star airline and not one that aspires to be one. Comparing TAP Portugal to Iberia or Lufthansa, I'd rather see it as a three-star airline, even though it's website works much better than what Lufthansa has been trying to pull off for the past decade.

The plane was FABULOUS. The crew were wonderful and the food more than I expected.

The food was dry and tasteless. Boarding process was ridiculous. Lounge is Lisbon was of very poor quality. The website is nearly unusable. Customer service was challenging. This was my first transatlantic business class flight with TAP. There will not be another.

Disappointing Compared to other airlines , this one was the most expensive. But not even close, in getting what you paid for.

TAP canceled connection and we had to wait 15 hours for another flight to Milan. There were plenty of. Seats on earlier but because we were Excellence Class the would not let us downgrade which we were willing to. Don’t understand their logic? Plenty of seats but we couldn’t / they wouldn’t make the change.

Excellent experience - from boarding through the super smooth flight The food was mediocre and the app could be better but overall great experience

This was one of the worst flights I have ever taken in my entire life. First of all, I traveled Economy, but the seats were TINY and cramped. Not just for me; everyone around me was complaining of the same thing and said they could not get comfortable. Then there was the issue of the heat. For whatever reason the heat on the plane must have been turned to FULL BLAST, because even at 30,000 feet, it was SWEALTERING. Everyone was drench in sweat. Then, they were SO STINGY with the amount of drink they would give you. If you asked for water, it was in a tiny, paper cup (think bathroom cup) and they only filled it 3/4s of the way as if the cost came right out of the pockets of the air stewards. Everything was a money grab, you could tell! You had to pay for the WiFi, which was garbage slow, and the onboard entertainment was limited and stale. If I EVER fly TAP again, it will not be Economy class. What a disaster!

They blocked me from checking in online and they charged me lots of money

Everything was good with Tap Air Portugal. It was Logan Airport that was a problem. The fuel system was down and delayed my 10:40 boarding. I wasn't able to board my flight until 2:00 am...after that my flights were great.

The space between seats is so minimal that there was no way to get comfortable. I will not fly this airline again.

In a 6 hr flight after paying over $700 dllrs of ticket and we still needed to pay for our own food and given ONLY a small glass of water!!! Will not be flying internationally anytime soon with them They are good for very short flights

No food was served on the flight. Boarding desk open two hours before departure. But they recommande to be there three hours before departure !! So we where a group waiting 1 hour in Line for nothing …

My flight from Toronto to PDL was one of the worst experiences of my travel history. I paid for an upgrade and did not receive it, and was also charged an exorbitant amount for a 25-inch bag, and when I tried to explain the situation, I was only told the flight was already over capacity. & I had to accept what I could get!, I am a frequent traveler and will not be flying your airline again!. The only thing positive in this entire trip wete the flight attendants, but other than that, everything else was very disappointing!

Everything was perfect, clean and very nice staff. But the seat was uncomfortable compared to other companies and the food wasnt good

Flight wasn’t full so got to stretch out and sleep.

Boarding was delayed. Then when we queued, it took us to another long line to stand in. Flight had 0 entertainment. Not even a magazine. But they had a free meal and it was good!

Reasonably comfortable. We were about an half an hour late. But no personal impact. Seats upfront have a good amount of recline, but do not lay down flat. Food and drink can be improved. There are no soft drinks available on the flights. Water, juices, and wines are provisioned.

This was a long flight - 6 hours - and nothing is truly comfortable for that long... but the flight crew was friendly and attentive. The airport in the Azores is small but we weren't there long enough to explore any amenities.

More space between seats and in bathroom. I don’t think there was any entertainment offered. If there was, I wasn’t aware.

I washed attendant for assistance and she never got back to me. I asked her a second time and she said she would check. She never did. The flight was over an hour late taking off No food service was offered despite over 4 hours on the flight

It was not British Air, we were put onto Air Portugal for our London to Lisbon leg.

Horrible leg room - coach seating with empty seat in middle on a 3 across seating. You buy business class for comfort which includes leg room. Absolutely no entertainment options either. Awful experience

The on flight entertainment system touch screen system and the USB charger did not work on multiple seats on least 4 seats an in different rows. The attendant tried to reset the system but was un successful. I couldn't change my phone to get my ticket for my next flight. This was an international flight I changed seats and the problem was the same. the flight attendant offered his power bank

Business class was nothing more than Economy with middle seat empty. Uncomfortable seat and leg room. A mom behind me had a 18 month/2 yr old on her lap, who had his feet on my back all the time- while middle seat remained empty. Pretty much not worth the fare. Very disappointed.

Once again I purchase a business class ticket and the seat is exactly the same as cattle class, the only difference being is that BA install a janky table over the middle seat so there is somewhere to place your complimentary drink, the tray table is just big enough for the small tray, so if you are not concerned about getting fed and watered on the plane or getting access to the BA lounge I would save your money and fly cattle, PS the cabin crew were exceptional in every way, shame about the equipment

When bussing people to/from the gate, don't pack everyone in like a can of sardines and don't send the bus on its way if the plane isn't ready. Waited for about 40 minutes packed in this bus...both ways!

A Perfect 2.5 hr flight. No amenities, but we did not expect any.

Delayed flight by 45 minutes. Need a refund to compensate for the subsequent itinerary changes

The flight was delayed and absolutely packed, we had to dispach our hand luggage which contained some fragile items, luckly nothing was damaged.
