Abstract
The pandemic had a very negative and penalizing impact on service activity sectors, including tourism and transport, to which Portugal was not immune. TAP Air Portugal, like Ryanair and easyJet, felt these adverse effects in their operations, forcing them to readjust their operating network. The present investigation aims to assess the effects of the pandemic on these airlines at Lisbon and Porto airports between 2019 (pre-pandemic) and 2022. In methodological terms, the analysis will be exploratory, descriptive, and mostly qualitative, based on the collection of information on the departure flights operated from these airports by the selected airlines in selecting dates. The results obtained show that TAP was the airline company most penalized given its international operation with many countries and their borders closed. In Porto, the results of this company were even more severe, reducing more than 50% of the airports served.
