Porto OPO
City breaks to Madrid, island hops to Madeira and longer trips to Central and Eastern Europe all start at Porto Airport (OPO) in Portugal. The real decision is when to go, which route to take and whether the flight is nonstop or connecting, because cheap flights from Porto vary by day and destination. With Warsaw, Krakow, Katowice, Budapest, Chisinau and Bucharest also among popular routes, some travellers are visiting family and others are on holiday; either way, booking ahead around school holidays and Christmas usually helps.

Getting to the city
Because Porto has only one airport, every arrival and departure uses OPO, so the transfer choice is about speed rather than terminal. The fastest way into central Porto is a direct ride to your address. Public transport can be slower, especially at busy times, so leave a buffer if you have a fixed plan. Check late-night connections before you book, and allow extra time for traffic and queues on early flights.
