Warnmeldungen und Informationen

TAP has been adjusting its operation to cope with a peak in crew absenteeism, since crew availability is being affected by the new omicron virus variant, which has led to the cancellation of some flights, with passengers being accommodated on other TAP or partner flights.
 
TAP tries to cancel flights that may be affected by the lack of crew availability as early as possible and immediately protects passengers on other flights.
 
In order to facilitate the process and avoid as much as possible the nuisance caused by these cancelations, for which we apologize, the passengers of whom TAP has contact details will receive a message from the airline informing of the new flight and, if they wish to make any changes to the solution found by TAP, they can simply follow the link in the same message to do so, online.
 
If the ticket regarding the canceled flight was booked via a travel agency, we ask passengers to contact them to rebook the flight.

Mandatory Passenger Locator Form

All passengers, vaccinated and not vaccinated, with Continental Portugal as a final destination or in transit, must have a negative RT-PCR (or similar NAAT) test result. The test must be taken a maximum of 72 hours before the first departure. Alternatively, passengers can have an antigen test (TRAg) taken a maximum of 48 hours before departure. Only antigen tests acceptable by the European Union Health Committee are accepted for travel. The results must be in Portuguese, French, English, Spanish, or Italian and may be presented in paper or digital format.

Exceptions to the presentation of COVID tests:

Passengers who do not comply with the presentation of the negative COVID test will not be allowed to board.

- On flights within Continental Portugal passengers it is not necessary to present proof of test or recovery certificate.
- On flights to and from the Portuguese Islands to Continental Portugal it is not necessary to present proof of test or recovery certificate, but it is necessary to fill in the Passenger Location form mentioned above.
- Different rules may apply to passengers traveling the Azores or Madeira.

For some destinations it is mandatory that passengers complete an online form, prior to the flight, proof of which will need to be presented at control points upon arrival, verify below if this is needed in your case. For destinations that do not have an online form, passengers will be requested to fill out a form during the flight.

It is the passenger’s responsibility to comply with all government policies and entry requirements, for example the need to fill out forms and/or Covid-19 testing. Failure to do so may result in denied boarding for the flight or entry to the destination.

Use of a face mask is mandatory on board all TAP flights. Therefore, all our passengers, aged over 6, must be equipped with one and guarantee that it is used during the entire duration of the journey.

The use of a face mask will only be exempted for passengers who are proven to have health problems that cannot use it. In these cases, prior to the flight and in order to travel, the passenger must have a medical authorization (MEDIF). Otherwise, boarding will be denied.

We also advise our passengers to inform themselves on specific regulations that may exist at their points of origin and destination, for example that fact that it is already compulsory at many airports to wear a face mask.
