Thanks

I've only done intra Europe on TP.

The in flight experience is basically on par with other star alliance carriers within Europe. They have an odd C cabin config on their narrowbodies with the port side having two seats with a weird and small leather slab dividing the seats, and the starboard side has three seats (therefore 2x3 config) without the middle seat blocked off so you could have all three seats occupied.

Also, their flagship lounge at LIS on the schengen side is a joke. At first it seems large but that's only because the walls are mirrored... you will find out quickly how small it is and with limited amenities. Depending on when you are there, it can get crowded quickly and finding a seat might be impossible.

Overall, not a fan of them.
