Star Alliance member TAP is selling discounted tickets for economy flights from Amsterdam to the USA. Flights to Chicago now only cost €253. Luggage is not included. Should you wish to add a piece of luggage to your booking, that would increase the price by exactly €100. If you book through an OTA, you can even pay as little as €214.
Flying to the USA is currently not really possible, and we don’t know when the entry restrictions will be lifted. We recommend that you book for September rather than June, as there have been numerous issues with TAP regarding cancellations and refunds – most people still haven’t gotten their money back.
You would always first fly to Lisbon, from where you’d fly to the USA on an Airbus A330.
Search & Book
This deal expires on July 25, 2021 and is valid for flights between November and March (except from December 15 until January 15), while respecting a minimum stay of one Saturday.
Google Flights shows all available dates, as does our own calendar above, which will either redirect you to TAP’s booking site or let you look for the cheapest OTA price on our Travel-Dealz flight search.
Mileage
All tickets will be issued in booking class O. You can expect to get the following number of miles:
- 2,250 Award Miles + 160 Points on Miles&More

As you can see, the number of miles is laughable and won’t get you anywhere.
Information & Tips for Chicago
Chicago is known for its architecture, museums, and lakefront, with highlights like Millennium Park, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Willis Tower. The currency is the U.S. dollar (USD), and credit cards are widely accepted. Prices can be high, especially for accommodation and dining in central areas, though there are budget options. The weather is variable—summers are warm and humid, winters are cold with snow, and spring and fall are unpredictable, so packing layers is advised.
