You are correct, bus service will be implemented on March 6

Look at the system map, makes it easier to visualize the line.

Bit confused

Beira alta line should not affect Lisbon to Porto trains, correct?

Also, bus replacement on that line is only for those three specific numbered trains (130, 180, 529), correct?

The Lisbon to Porto trains are not affected.

ALL trains on the Beira Alta line are affected, replaced with bus service.

There is a small offshoot line between Guarda and Covilhã that isn't affected at this time, but would need to use the bus service to get to it.

Three trains Lisbon to Porto are affected- see https://www.cp.pt/passageiros/pt/consultar-horarios/avisos/norte-130-180-529-transbordo

You are not likely to be using any of them-
2200 Lisbon to Porto; 0532 Porto to Faro and 0554 Braga to Lisbon.

Each on a few specified dates, and each with rail replacement buses between Aveiro and Porto; the trains starting/ending short at Aveiro.

Book with CP, not a third party reseller.

So this is a non problem.

Thank you for clarifying.

Yes, omio should be avoided and rail ninja is total rip off.

Thanks for all your help! I booked the train.

Several days are going to be impacted due to strike bby one union or another
