History
Lisbon Portela Airport opened during World War II in 1942. The airport was used by both British and German flights, as Portugal was neutral during the war. This led to it being an airport used extensively for smuggling people into and out of Europe and was referenced in the famous film Casablanca.
After the war the airport developed rapidly with a host of commercial flights. Many extensions of the existing infrastructure have ensued, and it is now running at maximum capacity, with another airport planned nearby to take away some of the traffic.
