Flights



Unfortunately, we are not able to arrange flights for you. However, over the period during which we have been arranging holiday rentals both we and our clients have experienced the services of a number of airlines and "travel shops". The suggestions and links below are a distillation of that experience and will, we hope, provide some guidance for this important part of your holiday arrangements. For those not already aware, the airport which serves the Algarve is Faro International Airport (Airport Code - FAO). However, it is worth noting that Lisbon Airport is a fairly straightforward 2.5 to 3 hour drive via the A2 motorway which arrives on the Algarve just a few miles from Albufeira:

Easyjet flies from Bristol, Belfast, East Midlands, Gatwick, Liverpool, Luton, Newcastle and Stansted;
BMIbaby flies from East Midlands;
Monarch Airlines flies from Manchester, Luton and Gatwick;
Flybe flies from Exeter and (from March '05) Birmingham;
Air2000 flies from Glasgow, Leeds/Bradford, Manchester, East Midlands, Birmingham, Bristol, Stansted, Exeter and Gatwick;
Thomsons fly from a number of UK airports including Coventry;
Globespan flies from Edinburgh and Glasgow
MyTravelLite flies from Birmingham;
British Airways fly from several UK airports and we have had a recent report of very competive fares from Gatwick.
