TAP Victoria
Originally founded in 1999 and known as Qualiflyer FFP (which was actually an alliance with Swiss Airlines), TAP Victoria underwent many improvements and began operating under its current name in March of 2005. Today, TAP Victoria is a world-class loyalty program of TAP Portugal, providing frequent-flyer advantages to its members.

At all membership levels, travelers experience superior service and are eligible to receive free tickets, discounts, and class upgrades. In addition, Silver Winners are awarded bonus miles; a birthday ticket; dedicated line and counter service; priority check-in, waiting lists, baggage delivery, seat assignment and protection; free allowance for excess luggage; use of TAP Lounges, telephone and fax, and airport fast track services.
