The nearest Airport to us is FARO see below for more information on it.
Flights to Faro are generally VERY reasonable PROVIDED you book on-line
directly with airlines that fly from your local airport to Faro. Below are
listed all the carriers (with links to their websites) we are aware of, that fly
to Faro direst from the UK, with the exception of BA, who only fly from Gatwick and
are usually expensive. Not all carriers operate from all airports so it's best
for you to first check which do - this can usually be found from the airport's
website - just type the name of the airport into Google for example "Luton
Airport" in double quotes to access these. A list of UK and Irish airports with flights to Faro can
also be obtained from the Departure Point drop down menu on http://www.travelrepublic.co.uk/Availability/Cheap_Flights_Faro.html

For those hiring a car at the airport
and using "Sat nav" the co-ordinates are 37º 03' 47.05" N and 8º 52' 21.56" W.
It is very important that people book directly on-line with the carriers
and don't use either a travel agent, or worst still a website through which you
can book a flight with any carrier to anywhere, such as eBookers and Orpodo or
any of the "compare" websites - YOU WILL PROBABLY PAY THROUGH THE NOSE AND/OR THE DETAILS
OF YOUR FLIGHT MAY NOT BE REGISTERED WITH THE AIRLINE CONCERNED. ALSO, THE FLIGHTS MAY NOT DIRECT BUT INVOLVE A CHANGE AT
ANOTHER UK AIRPORT.
