Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book your award flights to Europe with TAP Air Portugal for travel in late January to early February, as this is typically when you’ll find the most availability on popular routes like Lisbon to New York City.
Sweet Spot
You can fly from the East Coast (e.g., New York) to Lisbon for just 60,000 miles in business class, which typically costs around $3,000 in cash.
Routing Trick
Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Lisbon (LIS) via TAP Air Portugal, then continue to a secondary European city like Barcelona (BCN) on a single award ticket, effectively getting two destinations for the same mileage cost while saving approximately 2,000 miles compared to booking separate one-way tickets.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with TAP Air Portugal on routes to and from the U.S., as they can impose high fees such as a $200 fuel surcharge on award tickets.
