Here’s an idea of the required mileage for Economy class flights to/from Portugal (these are round trip amounts, take half the amount for one way).
It’s not the most attractive award chart but there are possibly some good deals to be had. Also TAP does run discounted award ticket specials during the year where the value could be much higher. In fact they had 50% off to launch this first anniversary celebration and it looks like one more may be coming as part of the celebration:
Yesterday it was better because they were wrongly selling for 1/3 of the price, which means you would pay 1/9 of the price for each mile!
They decided to take the purchase off the site to “fix” the issue, then they took the miles away from who got triple miles and today decided to give back the stolen miles…
Which means people could have bought each 1k miles for like 2 euros…
