About Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport

Located just 7 kilometers (4.3 miles) from the city center, the airport features two terminals: Terminal 1 handles most international and major airline flights, while Terminal 2 is dedicated to low-cost carriers.

The airport offers a modern infrastructure with services such as car rentals, lounges, ATMs, SIM card shops, duty-free shopping, and dining areas.

Due to its central location, Lisbon Airport is an excellent hub for travelers exploring both the city and the rest of Portugal.

Arrival tips for Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport

  • Booking in Advance : Especially during high season, book your transportation and accommodations early to avoid last-minute stress.
  • Airport Navigation : Terminal 1 is larger and handles most international flights. If flying low-cost, check if you’re arriving in Terminal 2, which requires a shuttle to reach other areas.
  • Currency Exchange : Avoid exchanging money at airport counters due to high fees; instead, withdraw euros from ATMs.
  • SIM Cards and Wi-Fi : Consider purchasing a SIM card upon arrival. Free airport Wi-Fi is reliable but limited in speed.
  • Luggage : Use luggage carts if needed. For oversized luggage or extra assistance, private transport services offer help at pickup.
  • Safety : Lisbon is generally very safe, but always stay aware of your surroundings in busy transport zones.
  • Late Arrivals : If your flight arrives after midnight, pre-booking a transfer is essential as taxi availability can be limited and public transport less frequent.
