Loneliness
is a hall full of people
that do not engage.

Terminal 2 in Lisbon is for the cheap airlines.
Do not be fooled by the pictures, they are highly misleading.
The usual amount of people is about 3x to 4x as many, and it should be clear that the chances of finding a seat while waiting or eating a McPlant burger are nil.
Security, on the other hand is quick, with laptops staying in the luggage.
