TAP Air Portugal announced that it will extend its new Los Angeles to Lisbon route to year-round service. This flight, which began on May 16, was initially planned as a seasonal route operating through October 25.
At 5,690 miles, the Los Angeles–Lisbon flight is TAP’s longest scheduled route and the only nonstop service between Southern California and Portugal.
For the upcoming winter season, TAP will operate the route three times per week, with flights departing on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Service is operated on Airbus A330-900neo aircraft.
The airline serves eight U.S. destinations: Los Angeles, New York, Newark, New Jersey, Boston, Miami, Chicago, San Francisco, and Washington Dulles. This summer, TAP says it is offering over 100 weekly flights from 11 North American markets, including Toronto, Montreal, and Cancun.
