Very nice trip report, maybe you want to add destinations on other continents that are served by TAP's A321neos with the throne seats. Natal, Maceió and Belém in Brazil, Accra in Ghana and to São Tomé in São Tomé & Principe. :-)
I have flown business class on many airlines before and have some expectations on what first/business class should provide. I was extremely disappointed in TAP's business class and here is why. My husband and I just got back from Portugal on TAP in Business Class, which will never happen again. First off, my husband has extreme visual difficulties so it is important we sit beside each other so I can assist him. When we checked in, they had changed our seats. We asked if this could be corrected and they could not change the seat back to what we originally chose. Fortunately the passenger next to me changed with him so we could be together. Just as Adam experienced, the reception was not there. The first interaction I had was to place our food order (no drinks served) about an hour after take off. We flew during the day so everyone was awake. Hot towels were delivered which I loved. Our meal was okay, but not business class quality. After they cleared our trays, we saw no one until they delivered our "light snack" about 1 1/2 before landing. So no drinks (water, wine, etc) for about 6 hours. The "light snack" was the worst meal I have ever had on a flight. On the positive side, the seat was comfortable for me but I am 5'3". My husband, on the other hand, who is 6'3" was not comfortable. And just like Adam the pillow was so think I had to fold it in half. The amenity kit was lacking as well. All in all, I will fly TAP Business Class again as I do not feel it is worth it for what you get.
@@ChocoTravelGuide right. And I was not the only one. The elderly lady who switched seats so he could be next to me was traveling with her sister and they did the same thing to them--switched their seats. They couldn't find anyone to change with them so they could be together.
@@user-gs9ip1wj8d oh wow. What a great idea! I never would have thought of that. What I would expect is that they would have at least the same amount of leg/lounging room that EVERY business class airline we have flown (and we have flown many) would have.
Beautiful Air Craft And Cabin.Great Video

Nice! Thanks for letting me know!!
Thank you
nice redemption! How is the weather in November?
It's pretty good compared with other European cities I visited in Nov. It was warm in the day time. A little bit cold during the night.
What website do you use to check the points and dates for the best flight to book?
seats.aero

亲耐滴，我和你有一摸一样的背包哈哈哈
哈哈 是everlane那个吗？那个很好背

Thanks for sharing your bad experience! It’s definitely a shock that they would change your selected seat without any notice!

So what could TAP have done to make your 6'3" husband feel more comfortable in his seat? Ask the passenger in front to give up his seat as well?
@@user-gs9ip1wj8d provide the same amount of room that every other business class airline has is what I suggest smart a**!
