TAP Air Portugal is running a special offer from London and Manchester to New York and Cancun in Business Class.
Whilst you will need to change aircraft in Portugal, the price is at least £600 cheaper than the best deal offered in the current British Airways and Virgin Atlantic sales.
These deals are available from London Heathrow, London Gatwick and Manchester.
The UK deals are as low as £1,350 to New York and Cancun.
You need to stay away at least five nights. You can book as far out as next September. Availability seems tight in 2023.
What can you do with the miles you earn?
TAP is part of Star Alliance. You cannot credit your flights to British Airways Executive Club or Virgin Atlantic, neither of whom are in Star Alliance. However, you can credit the miles to Lufthansa Miles & More or any other Star Alliance frequent flyer programme.
Our core article on ‘what is best Star Alliance frequent flyer scheme for you?’ is here.
How to pay
For UK departures, your best option to maximise your miles when paying is American Express Preferred Rewards Gold. This offers double Membership Rewards points – 2 per £1 – when you when you book flight tickets directly with an airline. Our review of American Express Preferred Rewards Gold is here.
You can check prices on the TAP website here.
