TAP Air Portugal has introduced a limited-time offer, providing a 30% reduction on award bookings. This special discount is available for both economy and business class redemptions booked by November 18, 2024, for travel scheduled before May 15, 2025. Miles&Go, TAP’s loyalty program, presents appealing redemption options for travelers based in the U.S. The airline boasts an extensive network across Europe and the Americas, serving multiple U.S. cities. Exploring award seat availability on TAP flights could be advantageous for your travel plans. Here’s what the promotion entails: **Fly to Portugal for 40,000 Miles Round-Trip Next Year** TAP lists promotional prices starting at 40,000 miles for a round-trip from the U.S. and Canada. From its Lisbon (LIS) hub, travelers can reach other parts of mainland Portugal for 4,500 miles round-trip, the Azores and Madeira for 7,700 miles, European cities for 8,400 miles, and African destinations for 33,000 miles. Bookings must be finalized by November 18, 2024, Portugal time (5 hours ahead of U.S. Eastern Time). Eligible travel dates range from January 14 to May 15, 2025, excluding a blackout period from April 7 to 22, 2025. **TAP Air Portugal Business Class on A321neo** *Image Credit: Stella Shon* The discount is applicable exclusively to flights operated by TAP and its regional affiliate, TAP Express. It does not extend to TAP’s Star Alliance partners, including United Airlines and Air Canada. In North America, TAP operates from nine airports via Lisbon: Boston (BOS), Chicago (ORD), New York (JFK), Newark (EWR), Washington, D.C. (IAD), Miami (MIA), San Francisco (SFO), Toronto (YYZ), and Montreal (YUL). Additionally, there are flights from Newark to Oporto (OPO). **Hot Tip:** For U.S. residents who occasionally use TAP, remember that TAP is part of Star Alliance, similar to United Airlines and Air Canada. You can earn and redeem United and Air Canada miles on TAP flights instead of relying solely on Miles&Go miles. **How To Earn TAP Miles&Go Miles** U.S.-based travelers have multiple avenues to accumulate TAP’s Miles&Go miles beyond flying. Points can be transferred from programs like Marriott Bonvoy or Capital One miles. Additionally, TAP offers a co-branded credit card in the U.S., the TAP Miles&Go American Express® Card from Cardless. The TAP Miles&Go Amex card carries an annual fee of $79, positioning it on the lower end among airline co-branded cards. Cardholders earn 3x miles per dollar spent on TAP Air Portugal purchases, 2x miles on ride-sharing services, hotels, and car rentals, and 1x mile on all other expenditures. **Final Thoughts** Portugal is a relatively short journey from the U.S. East Coast and remains a favored destination for vacations and remote work. Utilizing points to travel can be highly appealing, and TAP’s current promotion offers a compelling opportunity. It’s advisable to experiment with different dates and destinations on the TAP website before committing to transferring points to Miles&Go, as point transfers are typically irreversible.
