Faro Airport Hotel and Parking Packages
Faro Airport is the main gateway to the Algarve, one of Europe’s most popular holiday regions. It handles millions of passengers each year, predominantly from the UK and Northern Europe, with the peak season running from April to October. For Portuguese residents or expats based in the Algarve who need to fly internationally, a park and fly hotel near the terminal provides secure parking during their trip. One hotel near the terminal offers a park and fly package.
How it works
Book the Faro Airport Hotel and parking package through Aerfortel. Drive to the hotel the evening before your flight and park in the hotel car park. The hotel is 0.5km from the terminal, close enough that most guests walk. On your return, collect your car from the hotel car park. Faro Airport has a single compact terminal.

Frequently asked questions
Who typically uses park and fly at Faro Airport?
Primarily Algarve residents and expats who own or have access to a car in the region and need to fly internationally. Faro is predominantly an inbound holiday airport, so the park and fly market here is smaller than at major departure hubs. The Faro Airport Hotel serves this niche effectively.
Is parking at Faro Airport expensive?
Faro Airport’s official car parks are priced at Portuguese holiday airport rates, which are competitive. For trips of a week or more, the hotel park and fly package is generally comparable to or cheaper than official airport parking once the room is included.
Can I drive from Lagos or Tavira to Faro Airport for a park and fly?
Lagos in the western Algarve is about 80km from Faro Airport on the A22, roughly 50 minutes. Tavira in the eastern Algarve is about 30km, roughly 25 minutes. Both are easy drives for an evening check-in before a morning flight.
Which airlines fly from Faro Airport?
Ryanair, easyJet, Jet2, TUI, and various charter carriers dominate Faro’s departures. TAP Air Portugal connects the airport to Lisbon and Porto. In summer, Faro operates a very high frequency of UK flights, making it one of the busiest UK-linked airports in Portugal.
