Flight Experience
TAP Air Portugal has made some significant improvements to its business class product with the launch of the A330-900neo and A321neo. From what I've read, the food won't blow you away but the crews are friendly - not to mention a lie-flat always makes things better!
Flights are operated by an A330neo or A321neo. The A330 has a cabin layout similar to United Polaris while the A321 has a cabin similar to the older JetBlue Mint. Check the aircraft before booking so you know what to expect!

Bottom Line
Admittedly, I love niche booking opportunities that can save a bunch of miles. Of course, a trip to Lisbon is more than enough to spur a trip!
Happy Booking!
