How can I change the date or time of a flight with TAP Air Portugal?
TAP’s ordinary online change flow is limited to qualifying tickets issued more than 24 hours earlier. Agency, award, group and certain special-service bookings need a different servicing route. A date or time change is not the same as changing the route. TAP says the origin and destination cannot be changed through this online flow. For those changes, contact TAP or the travel agency that issued the ticket. If you have already checked in online, contact the appropriate servicing team rather than treating the absence of an online change button as permission to miss the flight. Bring the booking reference, the dates you want and the confirmation showing your fare conditions. Ask for the full exchange quote before paying, and check that the confirmation contains the intended flights and passengers. A permitted change is not necessarily a free one; the terms of the ticket remain the starting point.
Important unknowns
- Exact fee, fare difference and replacement availability require the ticket.
