FAQs - booking Algarve flights

  • I would like an airport concierge escort at London City Airport (LCY). What does this offer?

    When flying from London to the Algarve enjoy hassle-free travel by booking your own airport escort through the VIP Airport Meet & Assist service. You will be greeted on arrival, luggage will be taken care of while your check-in is done for you. After passing through fast-tracked security you will be taken to the lounge of your choice. At take-off, you will be collected by the concierge for boarding.

  • Which airline allows domestic pets to travel in the cabin with owners?

    If wanting to take a pet to the Algarve you are welcome to take one in the cabin with you with KLM Airlines. They will need to fit inside a travel container at your feet comfortably. Service animals are welcome with the right paperwork and a harness.

  • How do I reach downtown Faro from Faro Airport (FAO) with public transportation?

    There are many bus lines that run from Faro Airport to downtown Faro every day. The Vamus bus lines 14 and 16 are good for surrounding areas of Faro and the Proximo bus runs downtown regularly throughout the day.

    Portugal’s rules are not the same as other European countries and it’s important that you are aware of them when travelling with children in a car.

Top tips for finding a cheap flight from London to Algarve

  • When flying from London to the Algarve, the London-serving airports that cater most for this flight are Luton Airport (LTN), 34 miles from the city centre, and Gatwick Airport (LGW), 28 miles from London centre. They both offer direct flights on various airlines. London Stansted (STN) also offers flights if booked further in advance and they offer a direct flight, mostly with Ryanair. Stansted is based 39 miles from London. This flight is very rarely served by either Heathrow (LHR) or London City Airport (LCY), despite both being closer to the city.
  • If needing to reach London City Airport by public transportation, you can catch the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) tube line from the city directly to the airport’s station. This is the fastest and most economical way. If you prefer car travel, you can grab a taxi and be at the airport in approximately 22 minutes.
  • If you need mobility assistance at London City Airport, it’s just a call away. The airport assistants will help with public transportation, check-in, security clearance and boarding. If you have hidden disabilities you will receive the sunflower lanyard, letting staff know you may need assistance.
  • As the flight from London to Algarve is considered short-haul, if you fly with TAP Air Portugal you will not receive a complimentary meal. You will be able to purchase sandwiches and snacks as well as drinks though, and you can bring your own cold snacks on board, too.
  • When you land in the Algarve you will make use of Faro Airport (FAO). It is 2 miles from the city and allows instant access to the surrounding areas. A great way to see this strip of Portuguese coastline is with car rental. Get deals on car hire from globally-respected names such as Avis, Budget and more. Pre-book your car rental on KAYAK and enjoy your holiday with independent freedom.

Generally excellent but a couple of areas could be improved. After boarding we were delayed a full 20 mins whilst various ground crew, flight crew, captain faffed around counting and recounting passengers. Said discrepancy between computer and manual. All OK in the end. So why o why did it take 20 mins to find all OK? No sense of urgency shown Secondly the seat base is just not supportive/resilienfor a 4½ hour journey - backside really aching by journey end.

The staff are just so friendly travelling alone was a bit scary but they made me feel comfortable and nothing was to much bother I loved how one of the girls was talking to the old ladies she really took time thank you jet2 shame I can’t get home with u guys 🥲

On time flight. Reasonable comfortable but a bit cramped. Excellent jet 2 staff as usual.

A good flight with friendly crew and check-in but disembarking was chaotic and badly managed

Flights were on time, boarding was straight forward. Very good attentive staf

Delays on both journeys - only found out before geting to the airport as had created trip within Kayak.

There is nothing I can think.of that jet2 need to improve They offer a great package. Very efficient

All was good but they should bring back seat pockets. It’s difficult trying to travel with small children and keep having to get stuff out of flight bag and then have nowhere to put it!

The flight was okay, seats slightly more comfortable than Easy jet, but wouldn’t want to fly much more than 3.5 hours in those seats, hard and uncomfortable for further journeys. Boarding was okay, never eat or drink on Eco airlines, food not good and expensive for what you get. But it is what it is, and for the price one can not really complain.

Nice seats with matching colour coded seat belts to make it easy to identify the correct two parts.

Great flight just took some time to board even when lining up early for the flight, even taking off took longer then expected.

Flight was delayed by 1 hour 45 minutes. Aircraft was cramped, dirty and uncomfortable. Boarding staff more interested in charging you for oversize baggage than getting you on board. Overall not a pleasant experience.

It's not the staff's fault. The cabin crew do their best but the setup in Stansted Airport by Ryanair is poor. The herding of people like cattle is unacceptable before boarding and is something that's in every airport but only in Stansted have I seen the queueing of passengers outside the plane on the tarmac and the crew only turning up with maybe 5 minutes to depart. This is a resource issue . Yes prices are good but seemingly comes with a price of poor treatment of customers. I'll pay more next time

It was appalling, full of young people who were drunk and disobeying instructions to sit down. Crew did nothing to enforce. There was a Ryanair pilot sitting in the aisle opposite me who talked through out the safety briefing so loudly I couldn’t hear. Whole thing felt unsafe

Delayed for 2 hours lack of communication no refreshments as promised and the drinks on board were not as ordered and refused to refund

We were diverted to warsaw and there was zero information. We were just forced to disembark and off we go good luck the reat of the way. We all had to go our ways to find a way home!!!! Horrible horrible and it cost us alot of money to get a hotel and trains 4:30 pm next day.

Blood contaminated tissue was stuffed to the back of the seat in front of us.

My flight was delayed 1 hour. My Mood was not great

This time round it was very good, flight delayed by 30mins but capitan put his toe to the floor and made some time up!!

Keep track of your departure times and communicate in Airport. I could have spend an hour more in my lounge

There was no useful information given regarding the flight back to the UK from Tenerife. This despite the week publicised problems around the EES system and the delays caused to boarding. This aspect of the customer experience could have been much better.

Fast boarding, smooth takeoff and landing. plenty of space in seats. Excellent air-conditioning on a hot day. Perfect experience

Sitting on the last row in between the aisle and a massive person, all people going to the bathroom bumped into me including the flight attendants.

The best budget airline in Europe. Flight was on time, crew friendly and worked hard during flight and were able to meet our needs. Only downside (not the airline's fault), there were no rear steps.

It was transportation nothing more. I will give a positive rating over Ryanair. We missed our Ryanair flight the night before and received rude and unconcerned treatment from the Ryanair customer service. It was late. We were very tired and stressed after doing our best to get to the airport. The so called customer service ladies were completely unconcerned from the start. Aside from that, the flight to London seemed to be their opportunity for advertising. No time to relax as attendants were constantly in the aisle selling. I will never fly Ryanair again!!

Would not advise EasyJet for a 5 hour flight…small plane and hence a lot of turbulence. No inflight entertainment so struggle to pass time in cramped seats. We also fell victim to extra charge for our cabin bags, although bag dimensions were ok, but the handle was rigid and slightly fell outside their testing cage!!….never again will we fly with this airline and be party to their scams for making money!

The food and so are to expensive and old . Crew whas not very friendly . Apparently some other passenger can just Push through the waiting people to board while almost punching me and a father with a child down the stairs. Its always something with easy jet . The seats of row 26 where lose . And for a guy of my size there is absolutely no leg room at all .

Very pleasant crew, working hard on a full plane. Delay by a broken seat. However crew made back 60% of the delay.

The pilot did everything possible to make up the 35 minute delay. His communications were honest, prompt and positive throughout.

Staff were lovely. Seats could be wider/ more comfortable and late taking off

Not good because in this cancelled and then rebooked flight BA put me and my husband in both middle seats when we were originally seated together in original flight and i was in aisle. I hate sitting in the middle. BA food needs to be better. It was just ok. Thanks though to screw and everyone one for safe flight

It was not British Air, we were put onto Air Portugal for our London to Lisbon leg.

Horrible leg room - coach seating with empty seat in middle on a 3 across seating. You buy business class for comfort which includes leg room. Absolutely no entertainment options either. Awful experience

The on flight entertainment system touch screen system and the USB charger did not work on multiple seats on least 4 seats an in different rows. The attendant tried to reset the system but was un successful. I couldn't change my phone to get my ticket for my next flight. This was an international flight I changed seats and the problem was the same. the flight attendant offered his power bank

Business class was nothing more than Economy with middle seat empty. Uncomfortable seat and leg room. A mom behind me had a 18 month/2 yr old on her lap, who had his feet on my back all the time- while middle seat remained empty. Pretty much not worth the fare. Very disappointed.

Once again I purchase a business class ticket and the seat is exactly the same as cattle class, the only difference being is that BA install a janky table over the middle seat so there is somewhere to place your complimentary drink, the tray table is just big enough for the small tray, so if you are not concerned about getting fed and watered on the plane or getting access to the BA lounge I would save your money and fly cattle, PS the cabin crew were exceptional in every way, shame about the equipment

When bussing people to/from the gate, don't pack everyone in like a can of sardines and don't send the bus on its way if the plane isn't ready. Waited for about 40 minutes packed in this bus...both ways!

A Perfect 2.5 hr flight. No amenities, but we did not expect any.

Delayed flight by 45 minutes. Need a refund to compensate for the subsequent itinerary changes

The flight was delayed and absolutely packed, we had to dispach our hand luggage which contained some fragile items, luckly nothing was damaged.

Far easier than I expected it to be. Checked in online & had our boarding passes emailed through. Straight through security & boarded on time. No issues.

Great crew. Seats do not recline :( but it is budget so i should have known. Otherwise comfy leather chair. Slight slim chair but again budget so expected. No entertainment do makes journey boring. Recommend packing plenty of snacks and games or download plenty of films and music in your device. Staff excellent. Clean flight. On time.

Were delayed in the airport for 5 hours with no explanation. Flight kept getting delayed by an hour at a time and wizz air staff were no where to be found

The cabin crew on that flight were super fantastic and super helpful. They were so polite and considerate that i felt i travelled with a 5star airline.

Delayed delayed delayed - always with Wizzair. Staff were friendly and well mannered but clearly the company is unorganized and the aircrafts are outdated.

4 hr delay and only told less than 2hrs before. Only given water and nuts on the flight as complimentary service. Left to wait in rain before boarding.

To be honest I did not like anything. Communication to why my flight was cancelled mid air 2 and half hours into my flight. Customer service desk were not helpful with providing information or a solution on what can be done.

I have been treated unacceptably by WizzAir aircraft crew in a previous flight, they threatened me and abused me, and I received an OFFICIAL written apology, but only two (2) months later. This flight had no such unacceptable behaviour, but it's not nice to be left waiting in the walkway (from gate to aircraft) for a long time, just so that the 'boarding' appears to be early, even if actual departure is not.

What I liked new airplane Sitting was extremely uncomfortable! Crew not smiley at all Always chewing gum

The flight was cancelled just 4 hours before the take off...
