TAP--long-haul business seat questions
Hello all:
I haven't flown TAP at all but saw a pretty sweet deal for trans-atlantic flights to NE USA.
https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/prem...-business.html
I have an upcoming trip to GOT. Would like to utilize this deal to return to the USA.
Yet, reviews on TAP business seats are very rare. Previously, I saw that LIS-JFK was served with airplanes with NON-flat beds (flat beds were only available on ex-Azul A330 flights to BOS). Did TAP change this completely to fully-flat beds on ALL LIS-JFK flights now?
Has anybody reported that TAP does the dirty trick that United uses with their real Polaris aircrafts--swapping them with older planes all the time on the routes supposedly served by converted birds? I know that last-minute equipment swaps sometimes happen due to unexpected circumstances. However, UA does this constantly as part of their cheap, bait-and-switch strategy.

There are no "dirty tricks" [moderator edit]
