TAP Air Portugal A330neo Business Class

TAP Air Portugal recently introduced Airbus A330-900 NEOs into their fleet and I had the opportunity to take such a plane on the homeward bound leg of by recent business trip to Europe. At just 5 days old, I am excited to show you this brand new A330 in business class.

The reason why you couldn't scan your passport for the automated passport control system is because you entered Portugal via another EU country. If you had flown in from Toronto (YYZ-LIS-YYZ) for example, it would have worked, but since your entry into the EU happened in Copenhagen, the only port of exit that would have worked would've been Copenhagen. You can see at 4:22 right under the flags that pre-requisite explained - "have entered in [EU] through Portugal"

👍👍👍 thank you for your explanations

Never heard of an airline moving kids to business class so they can get better sleep! This is amazing of them!

[@jetchen5832]

a few years ago when i was on Cathy Pacific as an unaccompanied minor they moved me up to first-class to sleep!

[@joggle4321]

Nothing better than 20 kids making a ruckus in the busines class, you paid 3.000 quid for on your only vacation for 3 years. -.-

[@angb8182]

at the same time imaging paying top dollar to be in business class just to have a group of kids potentially ruining your experience. i know i would have been all ecstatic and probably would have made a lot of noise talking to other kids, yelling, laughing etc.

[@jarumboy1]

@@angb8182 these are kids travelling alone without their parents, you underestimate how scary it is to go on a plane alone or with a flight attendant for a kid.

[@Cruxispal]

@@joggle4321 You paid for the business class seat; not the whole cabin. Get over yourself.

[@jak4179]

"so i had to find a human,how primitive.." God I love your commentary

[@caseydykes117]

TAP brining up the kids to business is SO WHOLESOME. I am so happy to see this!

Thank you so much for this video. I am contemplating this for our vacation, and you gave me more reasons to fly with TAP.

[@Deadsurfr]

I love your videos. You cover everything well with a great touch of humor. I’m using your content as research for our first trip to LIS and the azores

[@alan95pony]

You had one of the better observations with TAP Airlines. Plus you answered many of my questions for me and my families flight to Europe very soon. Thanks very much and keep up the good work!!

[@davidlp6510]

One of the best description of air travel thus far here on youtube. I have subscribed.

[@operating]

After one video I subscribed because you are great to listen to as your reviews are very real let’s say.

[@AdamWolf13]

Very thorough and well described! Thanks.

[@janeohara8883]

Great review. I flew TAP a few years ago. Economy and there were lots of problems. But clearly they have really upped their game. I would have no hesitation taking TAP Business Class. Thanks for this.

[@ansarym.muhtasimsifat5613]

I really like the way of presenting the amenities. by the way I am really impressed with the background music.

Literally just waiting while watching every video for him to judge the studiness of the table

Great review! You’re right about LIS airport, it definitely need an expansion ASAP!

[@justinitagaki1731]

Tap on Tap Portugal haha. I like your humor

[@elle-vk4js]

I forgot I had watched this years ago! A few weeks ago I was debating upgrading but couldn't find any information on this business class, only to find out after getting home my favourite travel youtuber showed me everything I needed to know years ago! Next time I'll check here before anywhere else XD

[@joaodasilva5786]

I love the beautiful TAP ! can not wait to go fly in it , looks much better then some of them other poor airlines ..

[@deannaholt2851]

You had me at "kid version." LOL Will definitely be checking that out! Thanks so much for a great review! Will be flying exec class in a few months or so.

[@zoa2745]

Awesome and informative video!

[@brilliantbutblue]

Both entertaining and informative 👍. Honestly there are people that can actually f....k up ice cream believe it or not. The concept of unaccompanied minors being moved to Business Class if spare seats avail won me over as well. Great job TAP.

[@brianmcguck434]

Great video. Funny too!

[@YouFoundLev]

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! I will be flying on Sunday on this plane and I needed a quick review to be prepared! I appreciate this so much!!

[@sethgrice805]

Best commentary ever

[@borja1000]

I'm impressed with this review. I used to fly with TAP often until I had the absolute worst issue I ever had with any airline and never flew with them ever again (been 10+years).

[@rottenpizza3026]

what was the issue

[@borja1000]

@@rottenpizza3026 Besides the enormous delay to check in, I had excess weight, which I was aware of and had come prepared to pay for. The TAP employee at check-in yelled that fact at me and slammed the counter with her hand as she said my luggage was considered cargo. It was so aggressive and uncalled for that the other passengers waiting behind me became alarmed. I had never been treated that way in any such situation. It was beyond rude! I ended up finding out where to pay for the excess luggage weight, paid it, took the name of the aforementioned employee and wrote a complaining email. Never received an apology. This was years 10+ years ago and I'm still waiting for an acknowledgement of my complaint. I am Portuguese living in the US. I never used TAP and been treated that again in the dozens of times I've flown. TAP never have better prices anyway.

[@margaridasantos5546]

iam Portuguese and love your channel and tap airline

[@strusinskakasia2831]

quite nice hard product

[@robertbarnier45]

Yes, both. Thanks. Aussie Bob

[@Italia_trasporto_vario]

Between A350 and A330 Neo i don't know what's better but in my opinion both are amazing. Are soap dispenser and faucet automatic or push button in the bathrooms?

[@federicobucalo]

Nice review! I also took the TAP A330-900neo from Lisbon to Salvador and it’s still one of the best business class experiences I’ve ever had! I particularly enjoyed the window seat and the in-flight entertainment. I have a question: which program/app did you use to create the route animation at 00:30? Thanks!

[@davidhood9712]

Probably not a program meant to do that specific thing as Toronto is misplaced. I would guess normal video editing software with a ken burns effect on the map and rotation of the plane image.

[@maxwellwellmax878]

way to go TAP for pampering the children traveling by themselves!!.

As someone who flies TAP regularly, they have never been known to have good food.

[@nurzebetty692]

Hi have you flown with TAP during the pandemic? How is the business class product now during the pandemic?

[@saleemkhan019]

Netflix should buy your content

[@madtownbbbear]

Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this or not, but your flight map at the beginning of this video, your little green plane overshot Toronto and you showed landing on the north shore of Lake Erie (rather than Lake Ontario). Whoops!!!

[@christiandiablo9499]

How was drink refiill service during the meal service? I've heard TAP can be pretty lame in this area in biz class. thx.

[@b8you]

is that a fly flying around at 3:01?

[@nkhan4]

How come you use metric for your height but measure distance in miles and not kilometers?

[@jewelmarkess]

Anybody knows how do you add TSA precheck to TAP tickets? With other airlines you enter your KTN when you buy the ticket, but TAP says to just add it to the boarding pass? How? Is there a spot when you check in online? I a flying with TAP soon. Very informative video, btw.

[@valtervalente5302]

jewelmarkess You can just call TAP Reservations to add it =)

[@ahmadbaraka4852]

Moving passengers from economy to business class is usually done to improve weight imbalance and lower fuel consumption. I think..

[@QuarantineVideoz]

do you get to visit the lounge just because you buy a business class ticket? considering going biz class on my next trip to LIS

[@VicariousVoyager]

Yes! Business class almost always entails lounge access. The only major exception are domestic flights in the US.

[@saleemkhan019]

You should be Netflix actor ! No joke

[@lapierro]

Tap on TAP... you’re ready to be a dad.

[@francecote-allain5975]

How do you get a Star Alliance gold emembership?

[@PeterNGloor]

European business class is not overwhelming. They were friendly and served typical Porto wine.

[@nicolaspereira5705]

The white foam is not packing foam. I fly almost every other week with TAP and this foam is on all their A330neo planes! I don’t now what it is for but I personally don’t like it. I’ve seen some kids drawing on it, not nice.

Been in this Lounge last year . Very uncomfortable lounge . Staff at serving bar took so much time to understand what i want . the sleeping area's was changed . Medium quality

[@SilVia-hs2kb]

Seems really tight for business.

It did seem so at first, but the seat width itself is more than enough to be comfortable sleeping in. I wouldn't knock any points off for the seat.

He is trying to film with a Big Ol camera lol, so i cut him some slak.

[@prettysakurafl0wer]

I find it so endearing and pure that any unaccompanied minor was allowed into business class after first meal if space allowed it. And smart too. After eating as a child, the first thing I wanted to do is nap and seeing how sleeping children are quiet children..means no fussy children. lol

[@ivan_lima]

@@pepa007 oh boy ok... So because he's in business class and reviewing that product there is no economy class review. Besides it would seem rude and arrogant for him to walk through economy filming it and then going back to business class. Think dude...

[@pepa007]

@@ivan_lima you might be slightly stupid or unable to read, but I was asking just about economy class TOUR, not a full review. this could have been done during boarding/deboarding. Try to read properly and think first before telling someone else "think dude"..

[@VicariousVoyager]

All the seats were sterilised before the flight, so I didn’t want to sit in any of the Y and PY seats, it would’ve been unfair to their occupants. I also didn’t want to wait for the entire plane to alight and then waste the crew’s time. So maybe next time I’ll do a review in those cabins.
