Lisbon welcomes yet another airline

On 1 May, Lisbon Airport welcomed Ural Airlines, a Russian airline that will complement the direct connection between Lisbon and Moscow, until now exclusively operated by TAP Portugal. This diversification of options for passengers demonstrates the growing connectivity of Lisbon Airport.

The flight, on an Airbus 320, is scheduled for Thursdays and Sundays, arriving at Lisbon at 11:50 a.m. and leaving at 12:50 p.m..

To celebrate the arrival of this new airline, the passengers and crew on the inaugural flight were welcomed on their arrival at Lisbon with the traditional “baptism” given to the new aircraft by the firefighters at the airport and, at departure, they were presented with pastéis de nata, the Portuguese custard pastries enjoyed the world over.
