Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book your award flight to Lisbon (LIS) from New York (JFK) between mid-January and late February, as this is typically when availability is highest and the competition for seats is lower.

Sweet Spot

You can fly round-trip from the East Coast (e.g., Boston) to Lisbon for 60,000 miles with TAP Air Portugal, where typical cash prices can range from $800 to $1,200.

Routing Trick

Book a round-trip from New York (JFK) to Lisbon (LIS) with a stopover in Porto (OPO), which can often be done for the same 60,000 miles as a direct round-trip, saving you around 1,000 miles compared to booking a multi-city flight directly from JFK to LIS.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with TAP Air Portugal on transatlantic routes, as they often impose high fees, including surcharges up to $600 for award tickets.
