EUR 0.50 for a reusable Navegante Ocasional card, if you do not already hold one from the metro fare, plus EUR 1.90 for the metro's own single on that card and EUR 2.55 for CP's single on to Sintra — EUR 4.95 the first time, EUR 4.45 on a card already loaded. The same card pays for both legs; CP does not take the metro gate's contactless bank-card tap.

Worth knowing
CP's own trains to Sintra run about 05:41 to 23:31 on weekdays, with a gap from roughly 01:01 to 05:41 overnight, every 15 to 30 minutes. The metro itself runs 06:30 to 01:00; treat 22:30 as the safe last departure from the airport, since a late metro leaves too little time to change at Alameda and again at Rossio.
The fastest CP trains take 40 minutes; roughly every other scheduled departure takes 44 to 54 minutes instead, with a change of its own partway — check which kind a departure is before you plan around it.
Overnight, CP's own trains stop entirely from about 01:01 to 05:41; nothing here bridges that gap.
