The new
TAP is now a reality.
Today, we are announcing some very important news to the company and to all our Customers as well.
Up to next July, we will take delivery of new aircraft - eight ATR72 and nine Embraer 190 - which will allow us to improve the comfort and efficiency of our fleet. With such a new fleet, we will also be able to increase seat capacity available by 47% as well as to achieve significant savings in fuel consumption.
TAP Express is the newly branded product launched by
TAP to replace Portugália,
PGA airlines, from now on operating with a new fleet, as hereby announced.
We are also announcing the creation of the Porto-Lisbon shuttle, designated as “Ponte Aérea”, to connect both destinations with flights every hour, adding to 16 roundtrip dailies in the whole. This launch will enable better service on the point-to-point connections and much better conditions for an optimised connectivity to the Lisbon hub operations, providing Customers with easy access to the whole
TAP network.
These are historic days for
TAP and the investments already underway, which include orders for 53 new aircraft, €60 million to retrofit the cabin interiors of the current fleet, €11 million to retrofit twelve A320-family aircraft with the sharklet technology, €2 million for a new digital reservations platform and the increase and renovation of
PGA fleet, will allow us to embrace the future completely confident. These measures will improve TAP’s annual operation result in 60 million €.
