Via Lisbon

Flight connections from the UK are excellent. For example, in the summer you can depart Heathrow at 08:30 in the morning and be on São Miguel by 14:30 and from Gatwick you can catch the 06:30 flight and be on Faial by midday. There are daily scheduled flights via Lisbon to the Azores from Heathrow and Gatwick to the islands of São Miguel, Faial and Terceira. Flying time is around 2.5 hours for each leg.

Direct flight

Alternatively, you can catch the twice weekly direct flight on a Tuesday and a Saturday from Gatwick and Manchester to the main island of São Miguel. The direct flight takes approximately 3.5 hours and is ideal for those looking to stay for 7, 10 & 14 nights. However if you are looking for more flexibility the daily departures via Lisbon from Heathrow and Gatwick would be an option to consider. Please also note the direct flights only have 160 seats (per flight) which tend to fill up very quickly. These flights operate on Tuesdays from 3rd April to 30th October 2007 and on Saturdays from 5th May to 29th September 2007.
