Roughly 970 miles separate London Heathrow Airport (LHR) and Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS), so a nonstop spends about 2h25 in the air, a little more or less depending on winds and direction. TAP Air Portugal and British Airways both carry nonstop award space in the data. The Airbus A320, Airbus A320neo, and Airbus A321 all appear on those nonstop award segments. About 17% of the award options in the data are nonstop.
Points have to beat the cash fare to earn their keep on London–Lisbon. The economy floor is a TAP Air Portugal nonstop booked through its own program, which means the fewest points and no connection. Taxes and fees on that seat run about $72, in line with the route's typical economy taxes. Points pay off here mainly when fares run high, so redeem then and pay cash otherwise. Flexible bank points can reach TAP Miles&Go; confirm the space first, since transfers can't be undone.
TAP Miles&Go takes economy at 5,990 points on a TAP Air Portugal nonstop. Air Canada Aeroplan is cheapest in business class at 12,500 points on a TAP Air Portugal nonstop. Among the remaining nine programs, Alaska Atmos Rewards, Avianca LifeMiles, and GOL Smiles are good places to cross-check. Air Canada Aeroplan takes over at business class, so the right currency depends on where you want to sit.
The London–Lisbon nonstop is contested on points: TAP Air Portugal (Star Alliance) and British Airways (oneworld) both show award space. That gives partner currencies from both alliances a way onto a nonstop. Partner pricing sets the business-class floor: Air Canada Aeroplan books TAP Air Portugal as a Star Alliance partner, and no program prices TAP Air Portugal lower in that cabin at last check.
On the London end, Gatwick (LGW) starts at 16,000 points in economy, well above the route's 5,990-point economy floor, so it's only worth it when Heathrow is sold out. Confirm which London airport the award uses before transferring points. For a longer redemption from London, Atlanta and Bangkok are tracked too.
