Very enjoyable flight and I was impressed because ATR wasn't very noisy as I thought, is a very computerized aircraft and the fuel efficiency was impressive. The flight was smooth and the snack very tasty and very good for the type and length of flight. The TAP Premium lounge is also a very good place to stay at Lisbon Airport with decent snack's and with a good space for the size of the airline.

A rare domestic flight aboard TP that is inter-Iberian Peninsula, I'm always surprised by how small their route map is for domestic flights.
I find the seating colors in the TP Lounge to be a little but too busy for my taste (never been in person, so just judging on pictures), but the overall ambiance doesn't seem bad.
It's cool to see a rare ATR-42, it's normally always ATR-72s. This plane looks really new, how old was it? I've never see such a nice paint job on a tuboprop, I'd expect it to be almost black with all the soot from engines. Cabin is probably tight, but it looks very nice.
The snack box for a route of this length is very good; it's nice to at least get a sandwich during a lunchtime flight.
Great aerial photography during this flight, you got to see everything from beaches to mountains to farmland.
OVD doesn't look so nice.
TP reports recently have been looking very strong, which is a good sign that they are revitalizing.
Thank you very much for your comment. Unfortunately there aren't so many reports in this routes but TAP flies from Lisbon to A Coruna, Asturias, Bilbao, Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Malaga and Seville. Spain is a very important market for TAP, mostly for connecting flights to Brazil and Europe. The aircraft operanting this route were leased by TAP to White Airways, a Portuguese Charter Airline and delivered at 26/Nov/2014. The cabin is a bit tight but it's a small flight and I think that it's enough. I've also opportunity to talk with the flight crew and they said that it's a very reliable aircraft. As turbo prop it takes more 15 min comparing with jet aircrafts (and a bit noisier too) but spent less fuel (The aircraft spent +/- 1000kg for a 400mi route). The catering is also very good for this type of flight.
I really enjoy the TAP Premium Lounge because had a very relaxing and calm environment comparing with other but it's a bit small. When you visit taste the very good Pasteis de Nata and also very good portuguese wines.
TAP is making a big effort to erase the memories of last Summer and trying to winning back their customers.
OVD is a very small airport and recives +/- 10 flights.
