About this corridor

Flying from London Stansted

Stansted is built around Ryanair, with over 200 routes and the airport's single Norman Foster terminal optimised for fast turnarounds. The Stansted Express runs to Liverpool Street in 47 minutes; the airport sits 34 miles northeast of central London. Fares from Stansted are typically the cheapest of the London airports, especially on Eastern European, Italian and Iberian routes — the trade-off is fewer full-service options and a longer ground transfer at both ends.

Arriving in Faro

Faro is the gateway to the Algarve, Portugal's southern coast — 4 km from Faro centre and within 90 minutes of the major resorts (Albufeira, Lagos, Vilamoura). Capacity is heavily seasonal: April–October sees daily flights from most UK airports, with prices peaking in school summer holidays. November–March schedules thin out; some routes pause entirely.
