It happened again! Not a surpirse, of course! Monocle magazine named TAP Air Portugal as Most Handsome Crew. The prestigious publication announced their Travel Top 50 for 2019/20 online and in their annual The Escapist travel supplement. This is the second time Monocle has commended TAP flight crews for their looks, with the first award given in 2017/18.
TAP (Transportes Aéreos Portugueses) has been flying the flag of Portugal since 1946. It is based in Lisbon, and flies to 87 destinations in 34 countries worldwide.
In 2017, Monocle wrote o TAP, “It feels a bit 1950s to be talking about attractive flight crew but let’s be honest, who doesn’t enjoy being served by a handsome fella with a nice smile and a twinkle in his eye?”
BTW….Monocle awarded Portugal with seven awards. Beside TAP’s honor, awards also went to:
Claus Porto – The Amenities We Want More Of; São Lourenço do Barrocal – Top Southwest Europe Switch-Off; Belmond Reid’s Palace – No-Nonsense Room Award; Ritz Four Seasons Lisbon – Best Buffets: Madeira – Europe’s Most Underrated Short-Haul Weekender; and, Lisbon Airport – Most Conveniently Located Long-Haul Hub.
