Hi Don,

That's so nice of you to take the time and look into this.That's a very good price for a complicated itinerary.

As of now we are booked from Newark to Nice and Lisbon to Newark with Continental miles. I could also get us from Gatwick to Newark with Continental miles and see if my meager AA miles could get us the BA flight from Funchal to Gatwick. But DH says he rather spend one night in Lisbon that at the Gatwick airport hotel.

So..... In that case I'm stuck with TAP or Portugalia. And it kills me that a 1.5 hr flight costs PP approx $200 (Portugalia) or approx.$300 (TAP)!

This is going to be quite an expensive night in Lisbon :( !
