Boarding went fast. Lisbon's gates are too small for the flights they serve.
Great pilot, textbook landing in madeira. Everything else, from booking to checkin, plane quality, seat amenities, crew engagement, and overall experience were significantly below standard. I WOULD NOT FLY TAP IF THERE IS ANY OTHER OPTION.
Worst: long walk to baggage claim Best: left on time
Got in on time. Food was the worst ever. Comfort was terrible. Check in was incredibly bad.
The flight schedules are better than some airlines. Their website is terrible, it doesn’t store any information so every time you fly you have to re-enter the data. The flight was late taking off but we still got to our destination on time.
Flight delayed by >1 hour. Long boarding involving riding a shuttle to the plane.
When I tried to enter my identity details, your app told me information was missing but did not highlight the missing data. This was frustrating. Also, there was an unexplained delay of about 2 hours in taking off. This was also frustrating. Otherwise the experience was good.
The flight was delayed without any type of notice. After passing through the gate, people were lined up at the passages boarding bridge standing for about half hour with no clue when they can board after ‘boarding’. No explanation or indication of the new departure time. All you can do is standing up and waiting.
First, I was moved from my scheduled flight at 10:45 to 6:30. Bad form as I had a scheduled lesson in the morning that I couldn't get a refund for. Second, we were bused out to the plane and bused back to the terminal and sat and sat all with NO explanation until the end of the long wait. Third, once we boarded the plane, we again sat for at least an hour WITH NO EXPLANATORY ANNOUNCEMENT. Plane left and arrived 2 hours late. I missed a train connection adding hours to my trip home. Lastly, it's time the airport is upgraded or TAP gets priority for walk-on gates. As a 74 year old, carrying my carry on luggage up and down stairs between the terminal and the plane is a pain. Might be the last time I fly TAP.
Cancelled flight TP225 from LIS to MIA till next day
Uncomfortable seats. Crazy seat assignments separating families when they could easily have put them together. Good communication from pilot about arrival time after delay in departure. Toilet ran out of water in sink. Snack box poor for flight of this length.
The bed in Club class was not very comfortable, everything else was good.
Cancelled flight minutes before boarding. Rescheduled flight was two days later
The flight attendants were EXTREMELY personable and appreciated the service, lights going off after dinner (probably the norm, but I haven’t flown evening overnight flights in a while). Thank you!
Great room between the seats, food was excellent, very comfortable overall and could have stayed on the plane even longer
I have noticed that the airlines, including this flight, pretend there is going to be turbulence, announce such, and say they can’t do beverage service. There is no turbulence and the seat belt light goes off 10 minutes before they ask for tray tables up and seat belts back on. They are just trying to spend less money and it’s quite transparent
Business class seats were very dated on my plane. Very little storage, charging ports were not easily accessible, tv screen kept flopping away. Vegetarian food was disappointing: hardly any protein and severely under-seasoned. Crew was lovely.
The food was ok, but not great. They delayed boarding in Portland and did not enforce group boarding. But the crew was excellent, went above and beyond.
The food was pathetic. There wasn't much leg room and recline space for such a long flight. No tea/ coffee for a 2-3 hour connecting flight without purchasing! Really!?
No longer a premium carrier and no better than the low cost .
