The #WCEU Organising Team has good news for those of you flying to Porto this June: TAP Airlines will be our Official Carrier for this edition, offering up to 15% discount on flights booked through TAP Airlines official website, flytap.com.

Attendees who book flights through the TAP Airlines official website will receive discounts of up to 10% on Economy Class round-trip flights and up to 15% on Business Class round-trip flights to Porto (OPO) or Lisbon (LIS).

TAP is the largest airline in Portugal and offers direct flights to Porto from all major cities in Europe. It also offers direct flights to Brazil, the United States, Canada, and several countries in Africa and South America.

WordCamp Europe 2020 will take place in Porto on 4-6 June at the Super Bock Arena – Pavilhão Rosa Mota.

Flying to Lisbon – how to get to Porto

The discount also applies if you’re flying to Lisbon instead of Porto. From there you can reach the host city by train (if booked in advance, you can get up to 50% discount on Intercidades and Alfa trains), by bus or by car. It’s a 300km highway drive from Lisbon to Porto.

TAP Airlines also has direct flights from Lisbon to Porto and vice versa. So, if you plan to extend your trip to visit Lisbon, don’t forget that you can also fly between the two cities.
