Lisbon Humberto Delgado — AeroBus 91 + Carris
Lisbon Humberto Delgado (LIS) to Lisbon — Updated 2026
Lisbon airport has two bus options: the dedicated **AeroBus 91** (€4.00, 30-40 min, direct to Cais do Sodré + Marquês de Pombal — runs 24/7) and **local Carris buses 705 + 708** (€2.00, slower local routes). For most travellers, the Metro Red Line at €1.85 is the better choice — but AeroBus 91 has three advantages: direct stops at major hotel-district nodes (no metro transfer required), luggage racks designed for travellers, and 24/7 service (metro closes 01:00). For late-night arrivals or stays in the Cais do Sodré nightlife district or Marquês de Pombal financial district, AeroBus 91 is the best value-for-convenience.

Night-time Lisbon airport bus?+
AeroBus 91 runs 24/7 with reduced frequency overnight (every 60 minutes between 23:30-06:30). The Carris night service is unreliable. For very late or very early arrivals/departures, AeroBus 91 is typically the only practical low-cost option.
