A Ryanair.com hoje declarou guerra contra TAP na rota Aeroporto de Lisboa - Bruxelas Zaventem.
Em um anuncio da imprensa, a empresa anunciou a criação de um novo base no aeroporto principal do capitale da Belgíca e a União Europeia a partir de Fevreiro 2104.
A parte mais incrível do anúncio é a intenção da Ryanair para lançar 28 voos por semana (ou seja, quatro vôos diários) entre Lisboa e Bruxelas. Com as suas excelentes ligações ferroviárias em Bruxelas, e para Antuérpia, Rotterdam e Colónia, este irá certamente afectar a rota em que a TAP e Brussels Airlines tivem sido dominante durante anos.
Link:
Atualisação: 29 de Novembro 2013 - Parece que havera atualmente 14 vols ida e volta entre Lisboa e Bruxelas Zaventem. O numero de 28 vols refere-se a 14 vols ida e 14 de volta.

How to get from the Lisbon airport to Sintra?
The preferred alternative option for travelling from Lisbon Airport to Sintra is by Metro/Rail. There are +- 80 service per day taking about 50 minutes.
From the Airport take the Metro Red Line, (Linha Vermelha) to Gare Oriente (Metro/Rail/Bus Interchange). - 3 stops.
Proceed to the mezzanine floor where you will find the www.cp.pt(rail) ticket booths.
Buy a ticket and proceed up to the relevant platforms.
You will have to change trains en-route, probably at Agualva-Cacem Station, but you should check that at the Ticket office.
As regards prices of taxis, see this previous forum post:http://bit.ly/1em91td
As the above post notes, there are alternative routes to get to Sintra but the one I recommend above, imho, is the easiest.

Car Hire - Algarve - Summer 2014 - Info Note
I had the chance last week to sit down with some of the management of luzcar.com.
The one thing that strongly came out of this chat was that folk planning to visit the Algarve in summer 2014, (and particularly from mid-June though mid-September) and planning to hire a car (irrespective of company) should do AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
There is no indication about increased availability of financing for fleet leasing and, consequently, they feel the same vehicle shortages that assailed the Algarve car hire business in summer 2013 may well repeat themselves in 2014.
So plan to book early!!!
Alternatively, (and if you can), consider holidaying the Algarve earlier or later.
We usually have great weather here in May and June as well as in September and early October.
Casa Beachcomber, Lagos, Portugal - Complexe Touristique
