The Canary Islands are approaching pre-pandemic levels

 

On the other hand, the airports of the Canary Islands had a level of activity this weekend close to that registered in the last start of the August holidays prior to the pandemic.

Specifically, the Canarian terminals accumulated 3,800 operations from last Friday to Monday, which represents an 89% recovery in activity compared to the exit / return operation of August 2019.

75% of the international flights and almost 100% of the national ones, according to data from the public body AENA, which the President of the Government of the Canary Islands, Ángel Víctor Torres, values ​​on social media.

“Great activity,” says Torres, who adds that these statistics “bring the Canary Islands closer to the figures from before the pandemic.”
