Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS) is Portugal’s primary international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service carriers, European network airlines, and a growing number of low-cost operators. Located about 7 km (4–5 miles) northeast of the city center, it’s usually reachable by metro (around 20–30 minutes, fares roughly €1.50–€2.00), Aerobus shuttles (25–40 minutes, modest fare), taxis or ride-hailing (about 15–25 minutes depending on traffic). The airport can be convenient for international connections and central access, though busy peak periods and limited early-morning direct services can affect comfort.

We couldn't find any special offers for flights from Lisbon to Bucharest
Bucharest is served primarily by Henri Coandă International Airport (OTP) and Aurel Vlaicu/Băneasa (BBU). Henri Coandă, north of the city, functions as the main international hub handling most full-service carriers and many long-haul and regional flights; it’s typically viewed as the primary gateway and can be pricier on transfers and on-site services. Aurel Vlaicu, closer to the center, often caters to low-cost and charter airlines with shorter routes and budget fares. OTP sits about 16–20 km from central Bucharest with road transfers usually taking 30–50 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and ride-hailing are common (fares vary), while an express train and buses offer cheaper options in roughly 30–60 minutes. Băneasa is around 8 km away and reachable in 15–30 minutes by taxi or local buses, making it convenient for quick city access but with more limited amenities and fewer international connections. Pros: OTP offers wider connectivity and more services; Băneasa can save travel time and fares for short trips. Cons: OTP may involve longer transfer times and occasional congestion; Băneasa has limited facilities and fewer flight choices.
