    Bummer. It’s really epic there. Fly in to Lisbon and then to Flores etc.

    we tried a number of routes, I’m in SoCal, even the travel agents were surprised. 24 hour flight no matter how we configured it - on the days we needed to travel

    My best friend and his wife spent a week there about a year ago and both said the place was amazing, but also that week was enough.
    They live in Europe so getting there & back was easy for them. In past 45 years they've traveled extensively all over Europe, North & South America, but mostly on budget minded trips.
    So based on their assessment & experiences by "dustman" & "JOEA2," if traveling from the States, I think combining a visit to Azores with some other European destination would be worth of considering.
