When booking a flight for your customer, you can choose between several fares, from the most inexpensive fare, with fewer benefits, to the fare with the most associated benefits.
The passenger can decide how they want to fly and only pay for what they need, and one of the benefits associated with the fare is the early booking of seats on board. If the fare product chosen by the passenger does not allow the onboard seat to be chosen in advance, it can be purchased later as an extra.
When travelling in our aircraft, passengers will enjoy a modern, spacious and comfortable interior. Portuguese-designed Recaro chairs in all classes.
Types of Seats Associated With Fares
- Standard Area - From the last row of Comfort Class to the last row of Economy Class
- Comfort Area - Front rows of Economy Class with extra comfort
- Emergency Exit Seats - Extra spacious rows, mostly between Comfort and Standard Class
Seat reservations must be made in advance and are subject to the fare conditions of the ticket (rates applicable on DISCOUNT, BASIC and CLASSIC fares).
Seat reservations are subject to availability.
The value of this service is non-refundable but may be reused on another flight/date with similar conditions.
This service is only available on flights operated by TAP or operated on its behalf and by TAP Express.

Purchase of Seat Reservation On Board
Price List - Seat Reservation in Economy Class
If you have booked a DISCOUNT, BASIC or CLASSIC fare, there is no need to worry. You still have the opportunity to book a Comfort seat and make sure the journey is even more comfortable.
We have different rates for Comfort and Leg Space/Emergency Exit seats and depending on how far in advance the purchase of the onboard seat from the departure date, you can save up to 50% by booking as far in advance as possible.
- If the onboard seat is purchased up to 30 days before the flight departure date, the "Pre-purchase - 30 days before departure" price table applies.
- If the seat is purchased on board within 29 days before the flight departure, the prices shown in the table "Purchase within 29 days before departure" will apply.
For those who do not purchase in advance, during check-in, the system will automatically and randomly allocate seats. Any change that the passenger wishes to make to the automatically allocated seat will have the same cost as booking seats within 29 days prior to departure.

NOTES:
- This service can only be purchased as an extra for flights operated by TP/NI/WI. Not applicable on code-share flights operated by partner airlines. From 01 March, 2022 it is possible to book and buy seats on LIS-OPO-LIS flights
- The service can be booked and paid for through the Amadeus, Galileo, Sabre, Apollo and Worldspan GDSs, or during online check-in. After the seat reservation request, in the GDS, a time limit (OPW/OPC) will be created to issue EMD-A up to 72h before the flight or the service will be cancelled. If the flight is within 72 hours, the EMD will have to be issued within a few hours or immediately, depending on the flight schedule.
- For CLASSIC or PLUS fares, in cases where seating is free, the time limit will disappear as soon as the ticket is issued (at which time the system recognises the chosen fare product).
Exemptions From Payment
Seat reservations must be made in advance and are subject to ticket fare conditions.
Check if the seat reservation is included in the benefits of the fare and therefore the passenger is exempt from payment.

Important - Additional Information For Reservations
- Standard Seats - Free of charge 3H before the flight: Since February 23, 2023, standard seats are free of charge 3 hours before the flight (at airports and kiosks), so that families who wish to sit together or individual passengers can change their seats. Outside the 3-hour window, the change of seat in the standard area will be charged (for tickets whose fare/brand does not include the free standard seat reservation).
TAP recommends that passengers choose their seats in advance so that they can travel together and in the seats they prefer. (Seats are subject to availability and/or payment, according to the fare purchased).
- In case of an aircraft change. the “Smart Reseating” system will replace the assigned seat with another keeping the same characteristics (Emergency Row/Leg Space, Comfort seat or Standard seat). Due to different equipment, the chosen/purchased row may be changed to another. However, the system will check and assign a new seat with the same characteristics. For example, seat 6C "Comfort" seat and can be changed to seat 8D which also corresponds to a "Comfort" seat
- In case a passenger is assigned a seat of lower value than the one he paid for, a refund through EMD issued by Fale Connosco is due.
- If a passenger voluntarily cancels or re-assigns a seat after EMD issuance, the paid amount is not refundable but can be used for the same type of service within 1 year from the date of EMD issuance.
- In case of loss of connection due to flight irregularity and the same type of seat is not available on the new flight, the service may be fully refunded and refund processed through our services at "Fale Connosco" / Talk to us
- In reservations with multiple passengers, each passenger should be associated with a seat separately. Thus, there should be as many lines with seating information as the number of passengers. If a passenger is exempt from payment and his/her seat is assigned on the same line as another passenger who is not, the system can not differentiate and will cancel both seats if the deadline for payment is reached and there is no valid EMD.
- Seat Assignments - Families: TAP assigns seats automatically and free of charge at check-in, in the standard area, for adults and children in the same booking, regardless of the chosen fare. Whenever possible, and whenever available, adult seats will be assigned in the same row of seats as the child, or in an adjacent row.
We recommend that passengers choose their seats for the whole family in advance to ensure that they travel together and in their preferred seats.
