Cached-fare history: across 4 months, Oct is the cheapest for LIS → AUH. Best time to be there: Nov–Mar.
Fares bottom out in October around $302 and peak in December near $426 — a $124 spread across the 4 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes 2 stops and takes about 10 hours outbound, on a 6-night trip — ticketed under Malta Air, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $302 for 6,099 km each way, that works out to about $25 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $44 that long-haul fares on this board typically run. Across the 24 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Abu Dhabi, this fare ranks 9th — 35% above the $224 from Berlin. It is also the cheapest of the 13 routes of similar length we watch out of Lisbon.

LIS → AUH, answered.
Is $302 a good price for Lisbon to Abu Dhabi?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $340 round-trip and this fare is 11% under it, about $38. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from Lisbon to Abu Dhabi?
Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Oct comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Abu Dhabi are Nov–Mar — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LIS → Abu Dhabi?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Oct comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Lisbon to Abu Dhabi?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Malta Air. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
