Humberto Delgado Airport, otherwise known as Lisbon Airport or Portela Airport, is the gateway to Portugal’s capital. Collecting your hire car at Lisbon Airport is easy – the Avis car rental desk is located in the Arrivals area.
From there, Portugal is waiting to be explored with its spectacular coastline, scenic vistas, fascinating history and charming towns. The city itself is only four miles south of the airport and can be reached via the 2° Circular. If you are heading north from the airport (perhaps to Coimbra or Porto), take the A1 motorway via the 2° Circular. If driving south (for example to Faro), exit the 2° Circular and take the Vasco de Gama Bridge.
