"Since December 1, 2004, the Portuguese airline TAP Portugal is a new partner of Miles & More and a Star Alliance Member since March 14, 2005. What this means for you:
Now you can earn and spend status and award miles on all TAP Portugal flights.
TAP Portugal offers 180 flights daily with 40 different destinations in a total of 25 countries. The home of this leading Portuguese airline is Lisbon. From there it offers more than 45 connections weekly to Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Fortaleza, Recife and Salvador da Bahia. This makes TAP one of the top providers of flights between Europe and South America, in particular to Brazil."

TAP flies to some rather exotic destinations, e.g. Sao Tome & Principe, a former portuguese colony in Africa. If someone has 40.000 M&M miles left, this is where to go.. :-)
