Question 10

How long does it take to fly to Portugal?

Accepted Answer

Passengers on flights to Portugal from Australia can expect the journey to take between 24 and 30h. Your flight time and airfare can vary depending on which airline you fly with and which airport you arrive at. Travellers flying from Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD) and landing at Lisbon Airport (LIS) with Emirates or Qantas can expect their journey to take just over 24h, including a single stopover. You can also find cheap flights from Sydney to Lisbon with British Airways. Flying with British Airways adds around 4h onto your flight time. Flights from Melbourne Airport (MEL) and Brisbane Airport (BNE) to Lisbon are also available with Emirates and take around 24h. If you'd prefer to fly to Faro Airport (FAO), located in the Algarve, you can find Portugal flights from Brisbane with Emirates. Passengers on this route can expect their journey to take just over 27h, with one stopover before reaching their destination. Meanwhile, if you'd rather take off in Melbourne and land at Francisco Sa Carneiro Airport (OPO) in Porto, you can fly with SWISS or Lufthansa and arrive roughly 30h after departure.

Question 11

Can you get direct flights to Portugal from Australia?

Accepted Answer

There are no non-stop flights available between Australia and Portugal. While some Portugal flights only involve one stopover, many of the available routes make two stops. If you prefer a single stop on your journey, it's a good idea to book with Emirates and fly to Lisbon Airport. Emirates flights from Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane all involve one stopover at Dubai International Airport. You can also fly from Sydney to Lisbon with British Airways with a single stopover at London Heathrow Airport on the way. When you book flights to Portugal from Sydney or Melbourne with other airlines, such as Lufthansa or SWISS, your trip will involve two stopovers. Usually, the first one is in Hong Kong, and the second is in Germany. You will also need to make two or three stops if you book plane tickets with multiple airlines. For instance, if you fly out of Melbourne Airport with Jetstar, you will need to change planes at Sydney Airport and fly with Emirates to Dubai before arriving in Lisbon.

Question 12

What is the best way to travel around Portugal?

Accepted Answer

Portugal has great public transport facilities and cheap transport networks to help travellers get around. If you plan to explore Portuguese cities, like Lisbon or Porto, travelling by train or bus is affordable. Portugal also has an excellent train network along the coast and more rural areas, with lines stretching from Porto in the north to Faro in the south. Buses are also cheap and affordable in Portugal, although some services may be limited in rural parts of the country. Airports in Portugal offer cheap domestic flights, which are ideal if you plan to visit different regions during your stay. A flight from Porto to Faro takes just over 1h. Most of Portugal is also accessible by road, so car hire is a good option if you want to go off the beaten track and travel on your own schedule. In general, it's best to avoid driving in the cities or more built-up areas, where traffic can be heavy.

Question 13

Does an Australian citizen need a passport or visa to fly to Portugal?
