New flights between Lisbon and Santiago

[Bosco]

Hello fellow pilgrims,

I’ve just read today TAP Portugal will be starting twice daily flights between Lisbon and Santiago from June 2020. This might be useful for any prospective pilgrims flying from afar thinking about options of how to connect the two ends of the Camino Portugués.

This would have been perfect for me last year! I know when I was researching the Camino Portugués last year, it was quite a logistical challenge to fly into Lisbon from Vietnam and then realising there was no easy way to get from Santiago back to Lisbon quickly.

Great information. I have been thinking of using the train, but a flight may allow me an extra day to walk.

There was and still is a direct bus from Santiago to Lisbon vv ALSA bus is the contractor on that line and the bus also stops at the Porto airport and Porto /Casa da Música in the towncenter
