Ryanair operates this route with direct flights, no stops. You leave Alicante and arrive in Lisbon without intermediate landings. The journey is short (just over 1 hour), perfect for a weekend trip. Pack only essentials in hand luggage to avoid extra charges.
Best time to travel
Lisbon is welcoming year-round, but spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) offer good weather without peak tourist crowds. July and August see more visitors and may have slightly higher prices. Avoid booking for very last-minute dates if you're after the best price.
What to do on arrival
Lisbon Airport is 7 km from the city centre; metro or bus takes you in 20-30 minutes. Don't miss Bairro Alto, the Tagus at sunset, Pastéis de Nata at any local bakery, and São Jorge Castle. If it's your first visit, spend a day at the nearby Cascais coast. A weekend is enough time for the essentials.
