BOOKING INFORMATION

Seats on board

TAP aircraft' modern and comfortable seats

When you fly with us you will enjoy a completely different interior: one that is more modern, spacious and comfortable. There are Portuguese-designed Recaro seats in all Classes.

We have invested in the design with the help of leading Portuguese companies that specialise in skins and leather and who are responsible for the entire interior design of the cabin.

Please find below all the information about our seats, taking into account that the features may vary depending on the type of aircraft, whether operated by TAP or on its behalf, and by TAP Express. Check in detail the seat features by fleet in Economy Class and Business Class.
