Best of Both Worlds
Enjoy the best of both worlds when you fly with TAP Air Portugal thanks to the Portugal Stopover program. With the program, TAP passengers, whether traveling for business, leisure or both, can stop in Portugal for up to 10 days at no additional airfare on the way to their final destination. What does this mean for travelers wishing to explore by both land and sea? It means after flying to Portugal with TAP and experiencing the country in an entirely new way, travelers can then embark on scenic river and ocean cruises from Portugal’s port cities, or fly with TAP to another European destination.

Nov 2, 2026Thanksgiving and NYC: Perfect Pairing for a Family Trip
Whenever I think of New York City, my mind automatically flashes to images of people bundled up in cozy cold-weather outfits while they hustle along busy sidewalks. I can almost feel the crisp bite to the air and smell the roasting chestnuts, and I prefer to block out the sound of horns honking and replace it with the sound of crowds cheering as the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade rolls by. In other words, NYC during the holidays is a magical time and a great opportunity for a family vacay.
