August 7, 2026 Team Contributor
Members can now earn miles on eligible Airbnb stays and experiences, adding more value to TAP Air Portugal’s loyalty program.
TAP Air Portugal has expanded its TAP Miles&Go loyalty program through a new partnership with Airbnb, enabling members to earn miles when booking eligible stays and experiences on the accommodation platform.
The collaboration allows TAP Miles&Go customers to earn 2 miles per US dollar spent on qualifying Airbnb bookings, creating a new way for members to accumulate rewards beyond air travel. The move further broadens the reach of TAP’s loyalty ecosystem, which already serves more than 9 million customers worldwide.
How Miles&Go Customers Can Earn Miles
To qualify for mileage accrual, TAP Miles&Go members must:
- Visit the dedicated booking portal at flytap.com/airbnb
- Sign in to their TAP Miles&Go account
- Access Airbnb through the referral link
- Complete the booking of an eligible stay or experience
Miles will be awarded on qualifying purchases made through the dedicated booking pathway.
Strategic Move Amid Strong Travel Demand
The partnership comes as international travel continues to gain momentum. According to Airbnb data, international bookings made by Portuguese travellers increased by 28% during the summer travel period, with Madrid, London, Seville, and Paris ranking among the most popular destinations.
The appeal of Portugal as a global tourism destination also remains strong. Airbnb reports that 87% of guest arrivals at Airbnb properties in Portugal in 2025 were international visitors, highlighting the country’s enduring attractiveness to overseas travellers.
Sofia Lufinha, Chief Customer Officer at TAP Air Portugal, said, “At TAP, we are constantly seeking to create more opportunities for TAP Miles&Go customers to earn and redeem their miles. Airbnb offers a different way to experience a destination. We are delighted to welcome Airbnb into the TAP Miles&Go family.”
TAP’s latest collaboration reflects a wider industry trend of airlines extending loyalty benefits beyond air travel. Similar initiatives have emerged elsewhere, including the recent Air Canada Aeroplan and Hyatt partnership, which gives travellers additional opportunities to earn and redeem rewards across different parts of their journey.
Strengthening the TAP Miles&Go Proposition
By integrating Airbnb into its rewards network, TAP Air Portugal is extending earning opportunities to accommodation and travel experiences that complement its flight offerings. The airline currently connects travellers to more than 90 destinations across Europe, Africa, North America, and South America, making the partnership a natural extension of the overall travel journey.
