TAP Miles&Go utilizes zone-based award charts, with separate pricing for TAP-operated flights and partner airlines. While TAP flights may have variable pricing, partner awards generally follow fixed rates.

Here’s what to expect for one-way redemptions:

How much are TAP Miles&Go miles worth?

The value of TAP Miles&Go miles may vary depending on the destination, season, cabin class, and whether the flight is operated by TAP or partner airlines. In general:

  • Average value: TAP miles are typically worth between 1 and 1.3 cents per mile, especially for long-haul flights in Business Class.
  • Highest value: Earned when booking TAP flights in Business Class between the Americas and Europe, where cash fares are often high but mileage fares are fixed or promotional.
  • Lowest value: Economy class redemptions within Europe or on low-demand routes may offer a value of less than 1 cent per mile.

To get the best value, we recommend comparing the cash price of the flight with the number of miles required and opting for itineraries with promotional availability or during special sales like those TAP regularly launches.
