November 26, 2018

The first A330neo for TAP at the Airbus delivery center in Toulouse.

TAP CEO Antonoaldo Neves said the carrier has grown 10%-15% every year. In 2019, it will take delivery of 37 new Airbus aircraft, including the A330neo, A321LR and A320neo.

Airbus Commercial Aircraft president Guillaume Faury said the biggest benefit of the A330neo is its double-digit percentage in fuel savings.

There are two galleys on the TAP A330neo. This one is located between business and premium-economy class.

Premium-economy class offers 96 seats and a 34-in. seat pitch. There is just a little extra charge for passengers between economy and premium economy, TAP managers say.
