Flying Miami to Lisbon covers about 4,150 miles, linking Miami International Airport (MIA) with Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS); a nonstop takes roughly 8h50, with winds moving it either way. Nonstop award space in the data comes from a single airline: TAP Air Portugal. The Airbus A330-900neo shows up on those nonstop award segments. Expect mostly connecting results: only about 1% of the award options in the data are nonstop.
Miami–Lisbon is a long-haul trip, so cabin choice shapes the whole booking. Saving points means connecting: the economy floor connects once, and an economy nonstop on TAP Air Portugal costs more. The data doesn't include taxes on the cheapest economy seat, so confirm the cash portion at checkout. The middle step, premium economy, costs about 2.5 times economy; business costs about 6 times. The cheapest seat needs GOL Smiles miles; without a balance there, compare the bank-transfer programs before moving anything.
GOL Smiles takes economy at 9,500 points. Virgin Atlantic Flying Club is cheapest in premium economy at 24,000 points. Alaska Atmos Rewards wins business class at 55,000 points. Its 70,000-point first-class fare connects; treat it as mixed-cabin until each segment's cabin checks out. Of the other 10, Air France-KLM Flying Blue, Air Canada Aeroplan, and United MileagePlus are worth a look too.
Only TAP Air Portugal (Star Alliance) shows nonstop award space between Miami and Lisbon in the data; partner programs across Star Alliance can price it alongside TAP Miles&Go. For connecting options, the better-priced awards in the data connect in Madrid, Paris, and London. In business class, the floor sits on Royal Air Maroc, booked through oneworld partner Alaska Atmos Rewards.
Confirm the departure airport before transferring points, because Miami awards can also leave from Fort Lauderdale (FLL). Miami to Barcelona prices the same, from 9,500 points at last check. For a shorter trip from Miami, Aruba and Belize City are tracked too.
