It’s time to start planning your next trip to Europe.

Right now, we’re seeing business class award availability on nonstop flights operated by TAP Air Portugal from the U.S. to Lisbon and Porto for several months at the end of this year and the start of next year. You can use this award space to visit Portugal or head further into Europe or Africa with a connecting flight, often for little to no extra cost.

Let’s look at what routes have award space and how you can book these flights with your transferable credit card points.
