TAP Portugal has been running a status match promotion – and now even better, you could buy out a Star Alliance Gold card directly without any conditions!
The offer page is here. Now through 30th November, if you purchase the Club Top or Club Platinum membership, you’ll be granted TAP Portugal Silver or Gold status for six months.
They match Star Alliance Silver and Gold status respectively. Your account will be updated by 9th December.
As we know, *A Silver means next to nothing, so let’s just take a look what Club Platinum offers:
- Annual fee: €718
- *A Gold for six-months, and then TAP Silver benefits until it expires
- 36,000 welcome miles, plus 8,000 miles per month, so a total of 132,000 miles after one year
- Some exclusive benefits when you fly TAP, e.g. 25% bonus miles
*A Gold comes with business class check-in, fast track, airport lounge access (plus one guest) and additional baggage allowance etc, when you fly TAP, Lufthansa Group, United, ANA and other *A carriers. You are essentially pay seven hundred euro for these benefits and 130K miles.
You can check TAP Portugal’s redemption chart here. There’s nothing exceptional, but with 130K miles you can still get a one-way flight in business class from Europe to any part of world except Australia, subject to taxes and fees of course.
