La Palma airport remains inoperative since the last hours of last Monday due to the affection of the volcanic ash cloud that forces this Wednesday to cancel nine inter-island flights and one national from Madrid.
At Tenerife North airport, which was affected by several detours and cancellations this Tuesday afternoon, it operates normally on this day except for cancellations of flights with La Palma and all Canaryfly inter-island flights.
In addition, the Cabildo de La Palma has reported that the collection of household goods in the areas evacuated by the volcanic eruption is paralyzed by the presence of high levels of sulfur dioxide in line with the declaration of air quality as “extremely unfavorable “carried out this Tuesday by the General Directorate of Security and Emergencies of the Government of the Canary Islands.
Thus, in the municipalities of El Paso, Los Llanos de Aridane and Tazacorte, the alert for air quality is maintained and the population is recommended to stay indoors, and in the case of going outside, to use FFP2 masks , especially in people with weak immune systems.
For now, the magma flows mainly over old flows in the central area of the volcano, without registering significant advances or widening, and the entrance and exit route from Puerto Naos will be the road that leaves Las Manchas to the tennis club.
