I just saw the news on Portugal's state run network RTP, on it there was a story about the future of TAP and how the possibility of a new alliance was being mentioned. The administrator of TAP was interviewed and spoke about the possibilities of looking for partnerships with other airlines, specifically Air France or Lufthansa. Apparently TAP's reservation system is also being moved back to Lisbon after having been controlled by Swissair. I was also wondering if anyone knows when TAP will have a new livery, or will this be postponed since it was supposed to be a Qualifyer livery.
