Hours
CP runs 8 Alfa Pendular departures a day from Lisboa (Oriente/Santa Apolonia) to Porto Campanha under the timetable in effect since December 2025, with departures spaced through the day from around 08:10 to 20:53 -- journey time is reported as just under 3 hours, though published figures for this line vary by a few minutes between CP's own schedule changes.

Tickets
Every Alfa Pendular ticket includes an assigned seat at booking -- there is no unreserved fare tier the way there is on CP's slower Intercidades trains, where a 2nd-class seat must be reserved at least 24 hours ahead or the passenger travels without a confirmed seat.

Luggage
CP allows one piece of hand luggage free on Alfa Pendular; bicycles are only carried disassembled and bagged, not as a standard checked item, so a cyclist travelling Lisboa-Porto by Alfa Pendular needs to plan for that rather than expect a bike rack.
