Cached-fare history: across 5 months, Sep is the cheapest for LIS → PEK. Best time to be there: Sep–Oct · Apr–May.
Fares bottom out in September around $693 and peak in June near $1,050 — a $357 spread across the 5 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes 2 stops and takes about 14 hours outbound, on a 8-night trip — ticketed under Ryanair, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $693 for 9,662 km each way, that works out to about $36 per 1,000 km flown. That is below the $44 typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 26 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Beijing, this fare ranks 15th — 30% above the $534 from Sydney. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 32 routes of similar length we watch out of Lisbon, where the middle fare is $797.

LIS → PEK, answered.
Is $693 a good price for Lisbon to Beijing?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $815 round-trip and this fare is 15% under it, about $122. 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 Beijing?
Across 5 months of cached-fare history, Sep comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Beijing are Sep–Oct · Apr–May — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LIS → Beijing?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet.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 5 months of cached fares, Sep 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 Beijing?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Ryanair. 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.
