Tap a contactless bank card: EUR 1.92, valid across the network — the cheapest option if you arrive with nothing. A navegante occasional card (EUR 0.50) plus a single ticket (EUR 1.90) costs EUR 2.40 instead. Zapping is cheapest per journey at EUR 1.72, but needs the card and a EUR 3 minimum top-up.
A private car to your door: €36 for four
Four pay €7.68 on the Metro. The car meets you in arrivals and takes you to any address in Lisbon in about 25 min, at a price fixed when you book ahead with Welcome Pickups.
A partner link: Welcome Pickups pays us a commission on a booking. It has no say in how the options are ranked.

Ride to Saldanha
20 min.
Worth knowing
The whole network runs 06:30 to 01:00 every day including weekends and public holidays, the closing time being when the last train leaves each line's terminus. There is no extended night service on the red line, so a landing after 01:00 has no metro.
A single Carris/Metro ticket is valid for one journey within an hour of first validation and does not allow two consecutive entries to the metro. One card cannot carry two people through the gate.
The last train leaves at 01:00 and the first at 06:30. A landing in that gap has no metro. Carris runs night bus 208 through the airport but does not publish its times at this stop, so there is no scheduled alternative to point to.
The airport tells arriving passengers they must buy the navegante card. For one person going one way, tapping a bank card is simpler and 48 cents cheaper.
