TAP Portugal transfer to Air Canada in LHR T2

Hi,

I will be doing this transfer in my next trip with just under 2h to spare. I know that AC leaves from T2B, but I can't find any solid information on where TP flight arrives. I saw somewhere that it also arrives in T2B (unlike other EU flights) but the security control is in T2A. It's quite a long distance to cover, back and forth. Can someone confirm?

I have *G and should have access to Gold track.

Should not be a problem, while the walking distances can be long in T2, the facilities are fairly efficient.

TAP Lounge recommendation at Heathrow?

Any recommendations for LHR lounge when flying out TAP? FWIW, I'm arriving in the afternoon on UA from SFO and connecting on to LIS.

If you know whether your gate is T2A or T2B I would chose based on that. Though if you depart at peak times the LH lounge in 2A gets very crowded. In 2B I have only tried the SQ lounge, and I was pretty underwhelmed. So maybe go for Air Canada in 2B.
