    Wonderful airport lounge to rest at in Lisbon…read more Tejo Lounge is nestled away from the bustle of Lisbon Airport an escalator ride up from the full capacity seating before the boarding gates. This is TAP Air Portugal's flagship lounge in the Schengen area for domestic and EU flights. It was perfect for a layover before our Porto flight. The lounge is bright and spacious with plenty of seating and two areas to grab drinks, one in the buffet area and another on the other side with bar service as well as espresso machines. The buffet food options were plentiful and changed throughout the day. There are also yogurts, fruits, soft drinks and meat platters for a quick fill-up. In the morning layover, we enjoyed milky scrambled egg, local ham and sausage along with decent pastel da nata as our first local try of the famous Portuguese egg custard pastry. Before a subsequent return flight, the lunch option included pasta, caldo verde soup, sliced chorizo, traditional chickpea stew and a variety of fried items including the cod fritters. It was a nice variety even if I wished the fritters were warm. Many of the table seats have charging outlets for convenient recharge and the lounge includes its own wifi login for better speeds. There are even 6 shower rooms to freshen up from your last flight. The lounge was kept quite clean and there were a huge set of staff working the back kitchen as well as polite staff who restocked the buffet. A key advice if you are catching a non-Schengen international flight, the display boards inside the lounge prompt to leave 2 h ahead of departure. This is because Passport Controls especially with kids can be stuck in the long lineups. Tejo lounge is after security but before passports to get to the non-Schengen gates, and your safer bet may be TAP's Atlantico lounge instead in that area. Skip it or hit it? Tejo is definitely a lounge worth visiting if you have premium TAP airport access.

    Pretty nice lounge. Ample seating when I was there. Coffee. Tea. Water. Juices (not fresh). Bar and…read morewine. Some food but nothing wow. Meats (iberico ham) and cheeses. Waffles cereal. They had cakes (decent) and Portuguese pastries. Still much better than most American lounges. Staff was working to clean and stock. Not bad place at all. The lounge has its own bathrooms a few with showers.

    An average airport lounge before passport control…read more It was busy when we arrived at 1:20, but it quieted down a bit by 2pm. The food is so-so; two bartenders are great, as is the entire staff, and I got to try two reds. It has a shower. On my way to wash my hands, I found a quiet spot near the bathrooms: a seat and a wall--super calm. My machine-made cappuccino comes out sweet: I don't remember what I pressed - must be a senior moment.

    A lounge for those heading back across the Atlantic…read more Atlantico Lounge is located in the non-Schengen international zone within Lisbon Airport. It is the first venue immediately after Passport Controls from the domestic zone. This is TAP Air Portugal's lounge for international flights and is smaller in size compared to their Tejo flagship lounge. It is accessible for Star Alliance premium passengers. The lounge is smaller and typically quieter but I found it quite busy in the afternoon period with many passengers packed in with loose jackets in preparation for flights to colder climates. There is only one self-serve area with a small variety of hot foods, along with pastries, and drinks. Food variety included caldo verde soup, sliced chorizo, salad and pastel da nata plus other pastries for a Portuguese touch. Among the limited table seating, there was a partitioned section for small groups to recharge. There were no shower rooms in this lounge, and only one of each drink station for espresso, fountain drinks, juice and minibar. If you have a domestic connecting flight, the front desk here will refer you past Passport Controls to Tejo lounge instead, saving you from delays. Skip it or hit it? Atlantico can get crammed in peak hours so TAP's flagship Tejo lounge was our better option in the same Lisbon airport.

    More like a mall than an airport once you get through security. The first few yards is like you're…read morewalking through a department stores perfume section. And the layout of all the restaurants and shops is like a mall. Thankfully all the signs have an English translation underneath, which was so helpful. The majority of the employees really only speak Portuguese though. Some speak Spanish, but not many will speak English. So if you need assistance either finding the right way to go, or regarding your luggage, it will be tough to find someone who can converse without a translator. Except of course for the customs agents, they are always at least quadrilingual. There is only one area for baggage claim, so you just need to follow the signs. Although before you get there, you'll need to first go through the new EES system, which will have long lines, although it does go by somewhat quickly. If you use the app Travel To Europe, you can answer all the questions ahead of time. Although you will still need to go to the customs booth to have your photo and right hand fingerprints taken. This is now just an added security feature required for anyone visiting Europe. This new EES system was just implemented on April 9th, 2026, and in the first month, there were insane delays resulting in travelers missing their connecting flights, but they are currently allowing those with children, and with any disabled to bypass this and go straight to the custom agents. Once you go through that, then you can head to baggage claim. So you definitely should use the restroom right when you exit the plane, cuz it might be an hour or more 'til you can again. Btw you won't know which carousal has your bags until you get there. There will be screens at each one showing the different flights. Some carousels will hold multiple flights bags, and you just need to walk around the find the right one.

    I just wasn't really impressed with this airport. Upon landing there was no available gate/jet…read morebridge so our plane stopped well short of the terminal and we had to deplane using the boarding stairs (and I felt bad for the parents with small kids and several bags, and older folks or others struggling to haul carry-on luggage down the stairs), and then we were bussed to the terminal and entered via a door that seemed like a cargo delivery entrance. Upon entering the terminal, there was nobody from the airline to answer questions or direct passengers where to go ... so I just followed the herd and after a long meandering walk we ended up in the luggage/ground transportation area (no idea if we were supposed to pass through customs). My return flight wasn't much better. First, I highly recommend using FastTrack to get past the security line, but there is no shortcut around the hour to 3-hour immigration line. Of course, the airline called us to board our flight via zone numbers, but then we just boarded buses anyway so it was a free for all once the buses got to the plane and we hiked up the boarding stairs (I guess I should be thankful that the weather was decent). It just seemed like a rinky-dink way of running an international airport, but I guess if you are traveling through Lisbon you don't have much choice.

    Aeroporto de Lisboa - The north T1 addition is newer and more suited to handle heavies flying long-haul. The big Emirates B777 next to TAP's A330-900 makes sense.
