Can I make a 2 hours connection at LIS on an international flight?
2 hours clears the 75-minute international minimum connection time at Lisboa, but you should still head directly to your gate. Within Terminal 1, Schengen and non-Schengen zones are separated by passport control corridors reachable by a 5-10 minute walk. Terminal 2, used mainly by Ryanair and other low-cost carriers, requires a dedicated shuttle bus (about 15-20 minutes including waiting) and is not practical for tight connections. Passengers arriving from non-Schengen flights and connecting to Schengen destinations (or vice versa) must clear passport control, which can add significant time at peak hours.
