Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book TAP Air Portugal award flights for travel to Europe from the U.S. between mid-January and mid-March, as this is typically a low-demand period with increased availability, particularly on routes like New York (JFK) to Lisbon (LIS).

Sweet Spot

You can book a round-trip business class ticket from New York (JFK) to Lisbon (LIS) for just 60,000 miles, which typically costs around $3,500 in cash.

Routing Trick

Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Lisbon (LIS) with a stopover in Porto (OPO) for 30,000 miles instead of flying directly to Lisbon, saving you 10,000 miles compared to a direct award ticket.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid booking flights with TAP Air Portugal on routes to Brazil, as they often impose high fees, such as a $500 fuel surcharge on round-trip tickets.
