What this means if you are flying to Portugal
- Which airport you land at changes the price of the same extras. Across Portugal the second-driver fee runs €52 to €90. If your trip works from more than one airport, that difference is worth checking before you book the flight.
- Assume you will pay for a second driver. Between 87% and 93% of suppliers charge for one here, so a price quoted without it is not the price.
- The airport is usually the cheapest place to collect. In every market we have measured, town pick-ups cost more rather than less — the suppliers compete at the terminal.
