Lisbon Portela Airport, also known as Lisbon Airport (IATA:
LIS, ICAO: LPPT), is located 7 km (4.3 mi) north of Castle of São
Jorge in the city of Lisbon, the capital of Portugal. In Portuguese, it is
called Aeroporto de Lisboa, Aeroporto da Portela, or Aeroporto
da Portela de Sacavém. It takes its name from the neighbouring parish of
Portela, also known as Portela de Sacavém.
The airport is the main international gateway to Portugal and a major
European hub. It is one of the largest airports in Southern Europe. The airport
has two main runways, capable of accommodating large-size aircraft such as the
Boeing 747. During World War II, as the neutral airport was open to both German
and British airlines, it was a hub for smuggling people into, out of and all
around Europe, as widely referenced in the classic Casablanca movie,
whose plot revolved around an escape attempt to Lisbon airport. As such, it was
heavily monitored by both Axis and Allied spies. In 2009, the airport handled
13,277,959 passengers and 83,367 tonnes of cargo. The airport is the main
base-hub of TAP Portugal. The airport is run by State-owned company ANA
Aeroportos de Portugal.
The airport was opened on 15 October 1942, with four 1,000 m (3,300 ft)
runways. It quickly expanded, with extended runways and a new terminal. It also
expanded its parking facilities to allow more aircraft movements (110,437 in
2002). It has sixteen jetways.
