Where it sits
38.8°N, 9.1°W puts LIS in the northern hemisphere, 4,312 km from the equator and 5,695 km from the North pole.
Of the 661 airports on this site it is the 195th most northerly, which makes it the 467th most southerly.
Straight through the middle
Straight down through the centre of the Earth comes out at 38.8°S, 170.9°E — 344 km from Nelson (NSN) in New Zealand, which is about as close to a true antipodal airport pair as this table gets.
What’s near it
The closest other airport on this site is Faro - Gago Coutinho (FAO), 221 km away in a straight line. Nothing else on this site is within 100 km.

What’s on this page, and what isn’t
Every figure here is computed from the airport’s coordinates and the rest of the table — distances, bearings, ranks, the antipode. Nothing is written by hand, so nothing on it is a half-remembered fact about a terminal that was rebuilt in 2019.
Which also means what you won’t find: no passenger figures, no terminal maps, no airline lists, no live departures. Orbit is a logbook, not a flight tracker, and a page that invented those would be worse than one that leaves them out.
