Can I wait in the airport after my plane lands? My plane lands two hours before my friends can I just wait for her there?

Can I wait in the airport after my plane lands? My plane lands two hours before my friends can I just wait for her there?

Yes, of course. You'd be no different than someone waiting a few hours on a layover. Just find a nice diner or other spot to sit and wait. But don't forget to hit the can first… It's been a long flight.

Yes, you can

You can - not a problem at all.

However, if you have a checked bag, you will not want to wait 2 hours to claim it. It won't be at the baggage carousel that much later - at best, it will be in the baggage office and you can easily retrieve it; at worst, it will be stolen. So if you have a checked bag, you should go get it after you land, which means you will need to leave the secure area and wait outside it for your friend. If you have no checked bag, then this is not an issue at all.

Sure, lots of people do it.

Sure, after collecting your luggage, find a suitable place to sit and wait for your friend, I'm sure they will be able to call you to confirm where you are, some airports have coffee shops and cafes in the arrival lounge, but don't overstay your welcome.
