FAQs for booking flights from Portland to Tampa

  • Will my family be seated together throughout the journey from Portland to Tampa?

    Families with children love traveling with American Airlines for good reasons: The airline ensures that anyone flying with a child under 15 remains together. Their system can detect a family and search for the most suitable spots. Ensure everyone is included while making your flight reservations through KAYAK. The earlier you book, the better because seats will be less as the departure date approaches. Use the seat map to select seats for your family.

  • Can I get a budget-friendly airline with no middle seat?

    There are more advantages to not being in the middle seat when flying. Luckily, Silver Airways airplanes have no middle seats, and there are no cabin classes. You'll either sit on a window or aisle seat, reducing the disturbance of nearby passengers asking to move past you when going to the lavatory.

  • What are the requirements for flying with a pet in a passenger cabin?

    The recommended size of a kennel is 18 x 11 x 11 inches. Delta Air Lines requires pets to fit in a small, well-ventilated kennel (on three sides) to fit underneath the seat directly in front of you. Your pet must move comfortably inside its container, which must be leak-proof and have a secure door. Ensure your pet remains in the carrier when boarding, alighting, and at the airport lounges.

  • On which airlines can I buy carbon offsets?

    Flights contribute to carbon emissions that lead to warmer climates and planet degradation. JetBlue has a carbon fund whereby eco-friendly passengers can buy offsets. The funds are used in projects geared toward cleaning the air with solar and wind power technologies and conserving the Brazilian rainforest.

  • What is the cheapest flight from Portland to Tampa?

    In the last 5 days, the lowest price for a flight from Portland to Tampa was $89 for a one-way ticket and $179 for a round-trip.

KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Portland to Tampa

  • Looking for a cheap flight? 25% of our users found flights on this route for $86 or less one-way and $233 or less round-trip.
  • To connect through Washington, D.C., consider flying with American Airlines and stopping at Ronald Reagan Washington National (DCA). Sometimes, they offer connections through Charlotte Douglas Airport (CLT) and Philadelphia International Airport (PHL). If you prefer the New York City route, use JetBlue and stop at LaGuardia Airport (LGA). Atlanta Airport (ATL) and Detroit Metro Airport (DTW) are the usual stops for Delta Air Lines, while United Airlines' layover can be at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) or Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD).
  • You don't have to overpay for your bags and other add-ons on this route. While many airlines charge for extra bags, Southwest allows you to fly from Portland International Jetport (PWM) to Tampa International Airport (TPA) with two checked bags for no cost. Bring a carry-on bag – it won't count against your baggage allowance.
  • If your flight has a stopover, say PWM-LGA-TPA, ensure that your seat has plenty of legroom, as your flight time will likely last more than 6 hours. JetBlue standard seats are more spacious than most airlines. The pitch or space between seats is 32" on A320 and 33" on A321. Claim the maximum legroom (37" -41") by paying extra.
  • Book a flight with Breeze Airways to upgrade your fare to a higher class. The low-budget carrier offers three categories of fare: Nice, Nicer, and Nicest, similar to Economy, Business, and First Class flights. Any class you switch to will be free of change fees.
  • Nursing mothers can board American Airlines planes with soft-sided breastmilk coolers, moms' breast pumps, and one baby item. Such items are not checked, so you can still have them even when not flying with an infant. Moreover, the airline staff will show you their designated nursing rooms at the airports, such as the lactation room at the Airside on the Concourse level, near gates five and six of Portland International Jetport (PWM).

Flight attendants were wonderful. Seats were comfortable “Nicest” bundle). No screens or meal, but it is a budget airline.

it is an economy airline so lack of perks expected .. however an efficient board, clean plane, pleasant crew and an early arrival for half the price of full service airline

Very quick and easy process from check in to deboarding and baggage claim. Crew was professional and friendly. Flight was smooth and on time. Very convenient for short flights.

It was easy and very comfortable! The crew was accommodating and cheerful. I enjoyed myself!

I normally have very good experiences with Breeze. The crew is great, pricing is excellent, and the planes are new and usually clean. This time in Huntsville we were delayed, which I understand can happen, however we were moved from one gate to the opposite side of the terminal and then back again... There was a lot of confusion. Also, my seat had a lot of food crumbs still on the floor where I had to stow my bookbag, so that was a bit disappointing. Other than that, all was good. Crew was great as usual!

Our flight was delayed 7 hours. Due to a change in equipment we were downgraded from "Nicest" to "Nicer," even having to pay for a soft drink. Disappointing. To Breeze's credit that issued a $100 flight credit. A refund would have been more appreciated.

Lost my luggage and terrible experience with customer service trying to track it down

10 hour delay with minimal updates. Couldn’t leave terminal and then ended up on redeye with a dirty broken plane. It is literally impossible to reach customer service via gate agent, app, phone, text or email.

I thought that I had pre-purchased carry-on luggage and was surprised when I tried to check in that I did not have it.

Flight departure was 90 min delayed, and the boarding experience was confused, stressful, and generally poor. Additionally, the wifi on the plane was malfunctioning for all but the final 15 min of the flight into ILM.

Flight coming out of Buffalo was delayed, so we had to be rescheduled on another flight from Baltimore to Phoenix which means we had a long layover and got home 3.5 hours late. Shuttle to parking stopped at 10pm, so we had to pay for an Uber to the parking lot and got charged an extra day of parking since it was after midnight. Not the best experience. Long day!

Was fine, delayed and feels like southwest is always late

I don't know why flying out of Sarasota requires two plane changes.

The first time I flew in the extra legroom section. It was difficult to notice a difference. I had bad luck with my neighbors. The crew was okay. Southwest has reduced the live TV options.

The flight was smooth. The Southwest experience has degraded overall, but this one was okay.

No gluten free snacks. Seats felt worn or bare bones even though it was a new 737 MAX 8.

One major problem that was very unprofessional and uncalled for. Plane landed and we had to wait 20 minutes to get off the plane since they were waiting for someone to come to the gate to drive the jetway. Southwest couldn't have someone available and waiting for the plane to land? Is there only one person in Hobby airport who knows to drive the jetway? Was he at lunch? In the bar? Uncomfortable and uncalled for!

The checking experience in Orlando was terrible, almost missed the flight. Too many travelers and Southwest completely understaffed.

I'm glad it wasn't only 75% full because I could get a good seat

if I was good. Not happy that I have to pay extra money to get the seat I need for lake room, but I guess that’s a sign of the times.

Definitely a southern flavor. Cordiality was evident even though no drinks or snacks were served.

No service flight that took 5 hrs and a stop at an unscheduled airport. Crew and pilots did their jobs

I continue to be satisfied with Delta’s excellent service out of LGA. The digit id works well and gets me through security in no time. Whenever possible, I choose Delta.

Was revoked with Jet Blue due to delay from Kenya Air

Overall Good! The weather delayed our takeoff from Atlanta and our arrival in Miami! If Mother Nature can mess up a flight she will do it every time!

N Everything was perfect from boarding to assistance to baggage in Tampa

Snacks and included beverages were appreciated. Boarding went smoothly. Plenty of overhead bin space. Seats get very uncomfortable after a couple of hours. After waiting 10 painful minutes for my walker, a very nice Delta guest agent pushed me in a wheelchair to the gate. It was finally delivered to me after another 15 minutes . Our checked bag was on the carousel long b4 I was able to retrieve it. Fortunately it was still there but somewhere along the way the straps we used to secure it were removed and and were not reattached. Wish I had made note of the agents name.

The whole experience was excellent. As it most often is with Delta

We waited an hour on the runway to get a gate in Orlando

Flight was delayed by 3-hours and their fix was… complimentary pretzels.

I flew from Santa Fe to Denver to catch a flight to London and the transfer of my luggage on arrival at Denver to the London flight worked perfectly. The crew on the ground and on board for the London flight were so friendly and efficient.

Boarded early; and arrived home 40 mins early. After a long flight, it’s nice to be back home early. These flights have no amenities; no snacks. So need to bring your own

Boarded early, left early, arrived 40 mins early! A win win for me!

New plane was lovely. Crew customer service is always lax but expected. Kraft on time and arrived safely.

These airplanes should be illegal. The seats are two tight, it is a safety issue. Wheelchair support was ridiculously slow. We almost missed our flight.

It was a short flight so I was expecting too much

Horrifying Almost 2 million miles. Bring your own food and drink. One coffee or drink every three hours. Have to order meals on app more than 24 hours ahead Tiny and dirty bathrooms

Flight was delayed but more than 90 minutes. This caused me to miss my available windows for pick-up by a friend. I had to pay $125 for an uber back home from the airport which was an added expense that I had not budgeted for my trip. Staff was friendly.

Seat pitch is horrible especially on the 15 hour flight. Gate crew at SFO was Outstanding. The flight crew was also great.

Had a one hour delay due to mechanical issue. I didn’t think I’d be able to make my connecting flight, but they waited for me and greeted me when I arrived to help things run smooth.

Flight left on time. Captain provided relevant announcements. We had to wait 45 minutes to desembark due to the ramp closed because of lightening.

So overall the flight was just average and nothing special. They overbooked some of the flights and they ended up running out of overhead storage space so we had to check our carry-ons which wasn't terrible but we were inconvenienced because of the second connecting flight with a long layover we couldn't get our bags until the final destination. Most of the flight attendants were pretty good and overall the meals were not that great because the chicken was dry and overcooked. They also didn't provide butter or any kind of spread with the bread which is cheap and concerning. The American airlines staff at the check-in counter was kind of unprofessional because this lady just started singing in the middle of checking us in and that's weird. The worst part of the flights was the terrible conditions of the bathrooms which were unclean and did not have toilet paper or toilet tissue available which is kind of insane for a 14-hour and 8 and 1/2 hour flight.

Cancelled BOYH legs of our flight home 30 min before initial boarding

Flight left early and arrived 30 MINUTES early at the destination. Smooth trip.

I was able to get the AA customer Service desk to put me on an earlier flight without any issues.

Incredibly delayed. First delay was due to plane coming in being late. Resulted in 30 minute delay. Boarded and then had multiple mechanical issues. Was on plane for an hour until they told people they could get off if they wanted but couldn't come back. Then gate agent rushed in and said they had lost control of who went off and we would all have to deplane and then get back on. They said flight had not been cancelled. Then while sitting waiting to board again they announced it would take two hours to get new plane and to wait at new gate. New plane arrived, reboarded only to find out that pilots had timed out. Waited for new pilots. In that time one of the flight attendants timed out. Never received food or water while waiting. Was confusing mess as to what was happening. Even flight attendants and gate agents were getting frustrated. Almost 6 hours delayed. Called American to received flight credit but can't get anywhere as Kayak reservation and don't have a ticket number. Reached out to Kayak but never heard back.

Very disappointing. Flight was delayed by 1.5 hours and food options are very underwhelming even for first class seats (same food given to economy seats)

Was not able to do a online check-in because the American Airlines system doesn't store our visa or other passport information, allowing us to have a trouble-free check-in. We were forced to have to check-in at the counter which Changes are upgrade status given that we were not able to check in much earlier.

Incoming flight was delayed, delaying boarding. It then took 30 mins to take off. Took 20 mins to get to a gate because they changed the gate last minute, crew weren’t ready so there was no one staffed to work the jet bridge. Boarding was so disorganized as is usual with American because everyone just stands around the gate regardless of boarding group.

I would have liked vegetarian and gluten free options for evening dinner time flight. I would have like a pillow on the international overnight flight . The veg wrap and oaten desert on the international flight was good
