A number of airlines including Easyjet, British Airways, Ryanair and TAP Portugal, operate regular flights from most major UK airports to Lisbon, Porto and Faro.
The summer is a great time to visit, though July and August are the peak months and prices are highest, therefore the shoulder months of June and September are perfect times to visit.
