TAP Air Portugal is reintroducing flights between Lisbon and Manaus, the capital of Amazonas state, operating three times a week with a layover in Belém on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The inaugural flight is set for November 4th. With this renewed service, TAP now serves 13 Brazilian capital cities with a total of 15 routes (13 to Lisbon and two to Porto).
Previously, TAP operated flights to Manaus from 2014 to 2016. Tickets for the Lisbon-Manaus flights are now available for booking on flytap.com and through travel agencies, featuring promotional round-trip fares starting at 599 euros.
For Luís Rodrigues, CEO of TAP, “Brazil is strategic for TAP and the return of our flight to Manaus is another sign that we will continue to invest in the development of our operations in that country. We recently launched a new route to Florianópolis and we will end this year with at least 15 routes to Brazil, record numbers for the airline in our sister country.”
“Our aim is to bring more and more tourists to Brazil, not just from Portugal but from all over the world to which TAP flies, and to offer more than 60 destinations in Europe and Africa, which can also be flown by Brazilians via Lisbon and Porto. We want to continue to be the leading international airline in Brazil,” concludes the CEO of TAP Air Portugal.
During the summer season, despite the temporary halt of flights to Porto Alegre, TAP Air Portugal offers 95 weekly flights to Brazil, averaging 13 flights per day. These flights depart from 13 state capitals across Brazil.
TAP Air Portugal has consistently earned the title of Europe’s Leading Airline to South America at the World Travel Awards for 10 consecutive years, highlighting its exceptional service. Additionally, in 2023, it was honored with the MICE Award for Best European Company.
From Lisbon, TAP Air Portugal operates direct flights to São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belém, Belo Horizonte, Brasília, Fortaleza, Natal, Maceió, Porto Alegre, Recife, Salvador, Florianópolis, and Manaus. It also connects Porto to São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. In total, TAP Air Portugal offers direct connections between Portugal and 13 cities in Brazil (15 routes from Lisbon and Porto).
