Since their flight is later, it gives her a comfortable place to wait, but it involves their finding their way from T2 D arrivals to T1 B. How far is that, and how is the signage?

Another concern with this option is I think the Welcome Lounge doesn't stay open past 13:00 (her flight arrives 11:30, theirs 12:40). In which case their fall-back could be to meet at T1 B Meeting Point, but I don't know if there is somewhere for her to sit there.

Hope someone can help with simplest solution (I define simplest as least likely to get anyone lost ).
By the time your mother's friends make it to T1B (assuming their flight does not arrive very early) the Welcome Lounge will almost certainly have closed. Not sure where her friends are arriving from but from T2D they should go landside and take the Skyline train to B/C. This is important as they may be able to get on the Skyline train without going landside first. They will come down an escalator into T1 between a Relay shop and a Starbucks.



Turn right and walk towards the exit from the terminal building then turn left (don't leave the building). There is a cafe bar called Momento which should be easy to spot. It's at the top of the stairs from the arrivals level where the Welcome Lounge is located and probably easier to find than anything else in this area.



Momento is marked on this map.

The map below shows (roughly) where the escalator from the Skyline train platform for B/C is located.
