TAP transported 8.2 million passengers in the first half of 2026, representing a 4.2% growth compared to the same period the previous year. The Portuguese airline also achieved record operating revenues of 2,039.8 million euros during this period.
Despite the increase in demand and record revenues, TAP closed the first six months of the year with a negative net result of 99.2 million euros. This loss contrasts with the company's positive operational performance.
The negative result was strongly influenced by rising fuel costs, which significantly impacted the airline's profitability during the first half. This external factor ended up neutralizing the gains made from business growth.
During the period under analysis, TAP operated 57.5 thousand flights, representing a 0.3% increase compared to the first half of the previous year.
