if anyone could help me out and point me in the direction of any cheap flights to potugal that would be great- easyjet is really cheap there but expensive coming back??!

The nearest airport is probably Oporto.
BA and TAP do compete on this route but I think you'll be lucky to get a cheap flight in August.

You could consider trying Madrid by Easy Jet or Valadolid by Ryanair in Spain and then use Bus or Train for the onward journey.

If you haven't already booked, check Monarch scheduled and charter flights - some of them are really cheap, for example, Gatwick to Lisbon, £35 one way but some flights marked down to £19 (+ taxes)

Whoops, just realised this is a REALLY old post!!! Must have hit the wrong key on my keyboard. Mental note to self - make sure you're awake before you switch on your computer. The info, however, is still valid.

Well that info was useful even if you did hit the wrong button!
Thanks

Though not aimed at OPorto, I made a list that fly to Faro in the south.
