Porto’s new airport is luckily way younger and cleaner than the city’s average spot – F. TravelLover

OPO Airport Overview

Porto Airport (code: OPO) consists of a three-level, modern terminal with many shops and over a dozen eateries, mainly on the airside. WiFi is available, but there are reportedly few outlets for charging mobile devices. Comfort can be found through fee-based access to the airport’s first-class lounge.

Sleeping in Porto Airport

Porto Airport remains open overnight, and staff generally tolerate travellers sleeping in the terminal. However, most seating is made of metal and has armrests, and travellers frequently mention how cold the airport gets at night. Some have found quieter places to rest, but reports of begging and occasional theft mean it’s important to keep your belongings secure. Travellers arriving late may also have to remain landside until security reopens. For detailed sleeping locations, conditions, photos and traveller tips, see our Guide to Sleeping in Porto Airport or read the latest traveller airport reviews.

For uninterrupted sleep, there are hotels near the airport. See our Airport Hotels section below for locations.
