Lisbon Portela Airport LIS is located 7 km from the Castle of Sao Jorge in Portugal's capital city Lisbon, and is accessible from the City's '2a Circular / Segunda Circular'. The Airport is the busiest and most important airport of Portugal. With well over 13 million passengers a year and two runways, the Airport is a hub for SATA International, TAP Portugal, and is also served by other domestic & international airlines offering direct and connecting flights to all points of the globe, as well as by seasonal charters.
In recent years Lisbon Airport has not only added a new terminal, but also refurbished the baggage claim in Terminal 1, added a new cargo facility, fuelstorage, a North Concourse ('pier') & boarding lounge, north bus gate & baggage claim, expansion of South Concourse, departure lounge renovation, underground station, and more.
Lisbon Airport has two passenger terminals: Terminal 1 is for International Departures and International and Domestic Arrivals, while Terminal 2 is for Domestic Departures to Faro, Oporto, Braganca, Vila Real, Madeira and the Azores only. A free shuttle bus connects both terminals at their respective Departure areas.
