Lisbon airport (Aeroporto Humberto Delgado) has direct flights from and to all European capitals:

The Airport comprises of two buildings: Terminal 1 (where the main facilities are located) and Terminal 2 (which services the departures of low-cost airline flights). All incoming flights arrive at Terminal 1, irrespective of the airline.
If you are travelling back with a low-cost airline, the departure will be at Terminal 2, so you will need to get the free shuttle bus connecting the terminals. It leaves from the departures hall of Terminal 1, every 10 minutes. Taxis can also drop passengers off directly at Terminal 2.
The airport is very close to the city centre and less than 4km away from the University of Lisbon. It is well served by public transport, as passengers can travel from/to the airport by metro, Aerobus, and taxi. You can also get a Uber or Cabify ride.
The cheapest way to get to the downtown or the conference venue is to take the metro. You will need to buy a Viva Viagem card in the ticket machines (€ 0,50) and top it up with occasional journeys (€ 1,45 per journey). The first service of the day is at 6:30 AM and the last journey of the night is at 1:00 AM.
Terminal 1 of the airport is reached by the Red Line, which connects with the Blue, Green, and Yellow lines. The University of Lisbon is served by the Yellow line and its station Cidade Universitária, located just to the right of our venue.
Lisbon has many hotels and hostels, which may be booked through such portals as Booking or Hoteis. The symposium has no special agreements, but these are some of the options available within walking distance.
Visitors to the Portuguese capital have to pay a Municipal Tourist Tax of € 2 per person per night, which is not included in the hotel rates and is payable in cash only, upon arrival.
