What the numbers say

TAP Air Portugal was the cheapest carrier on 60 of 131 routes we priced it on, including BOS to BCN. Its widest gap was IAD to AMS, where it charged $856 against $609 on Icelandair — a $247 difference for the same week.

Jon has flown TAP Air Portugal. That is what allows a cabin review of it to carry the Flown label. The cabin facts below are published specifications; what they are like to sit in for eight hours is what a flown review adds.

What you actually get up front

TAP Air Portugal flies more than one business cabin on US–Europe routes, and the fare does not tell you which. We score the best one, and the gap between them is the part worth knowing.

A321LR

2-2, lie-flat, no direct aisle access from every seat, no privacy door. Seat scores 5/10.

Solo throne seats in the 1-1 rows; the 2-2 rows require stepping over a neighbor.

A330-900neo

1-2-1, lie-flat, direct aisle access from every seat, no privacy door. Seat scores 8/10.

The A321LR also flies US-Europe and runs an alternating 2-2 and 1-1 layout, so not every seat has direct aisle access on that aircraft.

A route missing here means the carrier did not appear in results for that week, which is not the same as not flying it.
Is TAP Air Portugal the cheapest way to reach LIS?
Yes. On BOS to LIS, TAP Air Portugal was the cheapest carrier at $581. That is unusual: most flag carriers are beaten into their own hub by an airline selling connecting traffic.
Has Jon flown TAP Air Portugal?
Yes. TAP Air Portugal is on the flown roster, which is what lets any cabin review of it be labeled Flown rather than Researched. This page is about fares, not seats; any seat review publishes separately and carries its own label.
