Flights to Portugal

Located in the Iberian Peninsula, in southwestern Europe, Portugal boasts an extensive coastline along the Atlantic Ocean, including two archipelagos – the Azores and Madeira Islands, which are part of its territory. Throughout history, Portugal was under Roman and Arab rule but is recognized as the first European state to establish its borders permanently, which have remained unchanged to this day. It was one of the most significant empires in Western Europe, with Brazil as its most important colony, gaining independence in 1822. For a long time, Portugal was considered a major maritime power. Today, it is a modern democracy and has been a member of the European Union since 1986.

Thanks to its geographical position, Portugal enjoys a predominantly Mediterranean climate, with the northern regions being cooler and characterized by mountainous terrain. With such diverse geography, Portugal stands out as a unique tourist destination, offering stunning bays, olive plantations, castles, and pousadas (traditional hotels). Key attractions include Cabo Girão, one of the world's highest cliffs; the Levadas – an impressive aqueduct system; Torre de Belém – a tower built in the 16th century to protect the Tagus River estuary; the ruins of Paço dos Duques de Bragança; the volcanic caves in São Vicente; and a boat ride on the Ria de Aveiro lagoon. Other must-visit sites include the Wax Museum in Fátima, São Filipe Castle in Setúbal, the National Museum of Ancient Art, the Jerónimos Monastery, and the magnificent gardens of the former Monte Palace hotel.

To immerse yourself in Portuguese culture, visit during one of the annual events: the Queima das Fitas Festival in Coimbra, the Serralves Contemporary Art Festival in Porto, or Portugal’s National Day celebrations in Lisbon. As a highly popular tourist destination, Portugal is served by numerous airlines, including TAROM, Wizzair, Ryanair, Lufthansa, Air France, KLM, Swiss, British Airways, Brussels Airlines, Austrian Airlines, ITA Airways, Turkish Airlines, Iberia, Vueling Airlines, Air Europa, and Flyone.
