I see this as a potential to impact the rising C fares in a good way. TAP is very competitive with Business pricing and it should bring others down as well. With that, they would be my last choice unless an amazing bargain as the few times I have flown them has resulted in misconnects and having to overnight in LIS. Not so much with their Intl. flights which seem to be pretty reliable but the European flights seem to come with regular delays. At the very least if you do book them leave a LOT of time to connect.

Interestingly those A321 NEO LR will have the same business class configuration as JetBlue Mint and Aer Lingus A321 NEO too. Four throne seats intermingling with three rows of four abreast seating.
Plan on leaving the plane via stairs to a waiting at bus.
Yes, even at TAP's home airport.
What fun after a long flight.
Anyone have any comments on the new TAP Lisbon to Chicago flights yet? I'm hesitant as I have never flown this airline
