TAP Lounge Question
Question on the TAP lounge in LIS - Wife and I are *G and flying business on UA - It looks like there is a nice TAP lounge in the Schengen area - We will be fying in from EWR - Is there a way to access this lounge before clearing customs or is the only way to go back through security? Thanks!

I've no idea if the lounge can be used by Schengen arrivals, and sadly you are not going to be able to find out for us. But it's a short trip into the city, so you'll be in your hotel soon enough

You cannot use this lounge on arrival, only on departure, so unless you have a connecting flight, there's no way you'll get to use it. The lounge is in the Schengen area, so even if you have a connection you have to go through passport control and security to reach it.
