Cheap flights to Ponta Delgada from £59

Flights to Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel, Portugal from the United Kingdom range from about 6h-9.5h. The length of your flight will be determined by several different factors, such as departure city and the number and length of any stopovers. If you’re flying from as far south as London, you’ll likely have one of the shortest flying times, thanks to the number of flights to Sao Miguel as well as London’s prime location. On the other hand, if you’re flying out of the north, such as from Newcastle or Edinburgh, you’ll likely have a flight time that is a couple of hours longer, due to both geographic location and the increased likelihood of more stopovers.

That way, you’re more likely to have just one layover rather than two or more.
