Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book your award flights for TAP Air Portugal to Europe during the low season, specifically from mid-January to mid-March, as availability for routes like Lisbon to New York tends to be more favorable during this period.

Sweet Spot

You can fly from New York City (JFK) to Lisbon (LIS) for 40,000 miles one-way in economy class, while the typical cash price for this route can range from $600 to $900.

Routing Trick

Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Lisbon (LIS) via Porto (OPO) instead of direct to save approximately 1,000 miles, as the JFK-LIS route is about 3,400 miles while JFK-OPO-LIS totals around 2,400 miles.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with TAP Air Portugal on routes to/from the U.S. as they often impose high fees; for example, a round-trip from New York to Lisbon can incur surcharges of approximately $550.
