Portuguese Star Alliance member TAP is running a business class sale on many of its routes to North America. Especially tickets to New York are cheap and show broad availability from many European airports, going as low as €1,275 for a roundtrip departing from Dublin. You always have to change planes in Lisbon, but can also stretch your stopover up to five days without increasing the ticket price.
Business class rides for less than €1,400 are available with departure from:
- Dublin: €1,275
- Barcelona: €1,282
- Paris: €1,292
- Milan: €1,325
- Stockholm: €1,326 (~SEK 14,645)

Our calendar displays all available dates. Simply select your preferred destination and dates, and we’ll redirect you to our Travel-Dealz flight search, where you’ll find the cheapest online travel agency. You can also be redirected to TAP’s booking site, though the price is roughly €100 higher there.
The long-haul flights always depart from Lisbon, operated by Airbus A321LR or A330-900neo planes. These business class tickets include 2 pieces of luggage, as well as all the other usual business class comforts.
Not too long ago, TAP’s Executive Class was infamously subpar. By now, however, all planes have been equipped with new seats that can be converted into fully flat beds and offer quite a high comfort. Especially the Throne seat on the long-range A321 is top-notch, being twice as big as other seats.

Information & Tips for USA
The United States offers a wide range of tourist sights, from national parks like Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon to cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C. The currency is the U.S. dollar (USD), and card payments are widely accepted. Prices vary by region but can be high in major cities, especially for accommodation and dining. Weather differs greatly across the country—winters can be harsh in the north, while the south often stays mild; summers are generally hot and humid in many areas.
The U.S. transport infrastructure is highly car-dependent, especially outside major cities. Urban centres like New York, Chicago, and San Francisco have functional public transit, but many other cities have limited options. Between cities, domestic flights are common for long distances, while intercity buses and Amtrak trains cover some routes, though often with slower speeds and less frequency compared to other countries. Without a car, getting around can be inconvenient in many parts of the country.
