We’re calling it now: Portugal is going to be the destination of the summer thanks to a new partnership between Madeira Promotion Bureau, VisitAlgarve and United Airlines. These destinations are excited to announce the launch of two new direct flights routes from Newark (EWR) to Portugal’s Madeira (FNC) and Faro (FAO).
This new expansion strengthens ties between the United States, Madeira Island and the Algarve region. In addition, U.S. travelers now have more access and options to explore the beautiful landscapes and cultural heritage of the two regions.
Services to Madeira begin June 7, and operate until Sept. 23. Flights will run three times a week on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, departing from Newark Liberty International Airport at 9:50 p.m. Newark also provides a convenient location for many other connecting flights to and from various cities in the United States.
Service to Faro, Algarve, starts May 16, and runs until Sept. 23. Flights will be operated on United’s Boeing 757-200, departing from Newark with four flights per week on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
