In the airport from Alicante – Elche still it has not been noticed the decision of the British executive to apply a quarantine 14 days to all travelers arriving from Spain. In fact, this Monday all 53 connections have been maintained scheduled with UK, as confirmed by AENA to Radio Alicante. The 26 departures and 27 arrivals are maintained, since there have been no cancellations or changes to flights, they point out from AENA.
Also, the impact of the absence of TUI, one of the world’s largest tour operators, still not appreciated as only opera from Alicante airport Saturdays. So we will have to wait until the end of weeks to see the true consequences of the English government restrictions on our tourism.
A sector that is highly dependent on the British market. And as a sample, a fact. One third of the total 152 flights scheduled today, are connections with the United Kingdom. A similar figure to the one given yesterday at the Alicante airfield.
Tourists resign
We have come to the airport to see how it was living this Monday after the announcement of the weekend of the English executive. Photo today it was usual for a day in July postcovid, that is, a lot of movement of people, but not like in a July of previous years.
Workers From the airport have confirmed that, from this Sunday, Yes, a greater presence of English tourists has been noticed who asked about how this measure would affect them and some who wanted to speed up their return to their country for fear that the situation would be complicated by the increase in outbreaks. But It was not an avalanche, but specific cases, they clarify.
And between the tourists consulted, agree that the Boris Johnson government’s measure is excessive, but they take it with resignation. If it is what we have to do, we will do it, they assure.
