Venezuela TAP
 
I'm supposed to be on a A332 flight TP0124 Economy from CCS via OPO to GVA. Any suggestions for the best seat or any other recommendations ? It is the first time I am talking this flight. So far I heard a lot of negative things on TAP.

I don't know which FF program you belong to but keep your BP preciously as the miles for the two flights I did with TAP never posted and I had to send the BP and tickets to AC for credit. Miles were finally credited, months later.

Do not worry too much about TAP. I have actually in the past chosen TAP over other airlines (AF, Brussel Airlines, BA) if I had to fly Economy long haul on certain routes. The main reason was the (relatively) good leg room in Eco. (But that was on their A340s, maybe you get less room on their - newer - A330s.)

I know they have a bad reputation, but I have never (in about 25 flights) had any really bad experiences with them. (Read: worse than other airlines... ;)) And OPO is a nice place to connect.

Anyway, I would choose them over KLM any day! :cool: (Since that is “your” programme...)

It's been ages since I last flew TAP, but I recently visited the (shared) lounge they use in CCS, and I can tell you that you're far better off staying in the public area of the terminal!

TAP and LH. There might be others but those two for sure.
