Overnight layover guide. Sleeping facilities in the public zone or boarding area
Please note that some published services and schedules may be subject to change. If the idea is to spend the night in the public area, consider a plan B in case the stay inside the airport is only allowed for those who are about to board.
Spending the night at the airport
Madeira airport is open 24 hours a day, so you can spend the night inside the premises if you have an early morning flight.
Where to rest: In general, the seats available inside the terminal have armrests, so you'll need to lie on the floor, although there is an area with more comfortable benches opposite the Arrivals Hall exit. Passengers with more budget can enter the VIP lounge on the third floor, although it closes at night. Otherwise, there are several hotels in the vicinity.
Baggage: There is a 24-hour left-luggage service on the ground floor of the terminal.
Eating and drinking: There are no options open during the night.
Wi-Fi: Free for unlimited time.
Other services available around the clock: ATMs, baby changing facilities.
