SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, September 26 (EUROPA PRESS) –

Tenerife received the arrival of 747,123 passengers last August, 4.9% more than the previous year (34,644 more passengers), which is 3% higher than the arrivals the island had in August 2019.

The vice president and Minister of Tourism, Lope Afonso, assures in a note that “Tenerife leads tourism in the archipelago, improving the percentage of arrivals in national, inter-island, as well as international traffic, increasing last year’s figures, “island improves the figures for 2022, which definitively consolidate the destination.”

Afonso highlights the good health of the tourism sector in Tenerife and reinforces the strategy “towards a quality destination, with first-class services.”

Thus, arrivals to Tenerife in the month represented 37% of the total from the Canary Islands, followed by Gran Canaria, with a share of 28%, Lanzarote, with 18% and Fuerteventura, with a 13% share.

Following them were La Palma (3%), El Hierro (1%) and La Gomera (0.3%). With the exception of La Palma and Fuerteventura, which reduced their traffic in August, the remaining islands increased their arrival figures in a year-on-year comparison.

National traffic arriving in Tenerife, 325,670 passengers, was 3.6% above that recorded in August of the previous year, with an increase in peninsular traffic of 1.4% and inter-island traffic of +7% in interannual comparison.

International traffic, with 421,453 passengers arriving in the month, increased by 5.9% compared to August 2022 and 6.8% compared to 2019.

With the exception of four markets that reduce their traffic (Italy, Iceland, Hungary and Denmark), the remaining markets have increased their flows to Tenerife in the month of August.

This month, the operation from Bulgaria that began in July and which was not recorded in the previous year is maintained and the operation from Venezuela, which began in November 2022 after its interruption since March 2020, also remains active, the same as that from Morocco.

Almost 63% of the arrivals in the month of August were registered at the Tenerife South airport (467,775 passengers), registering an increase of 6.3% compared to the previous year while the Tenerife North airport, with an increase of +2, 5%, received 37.4% of the traffic arriving on the island in the month (279,348 passengers).

In the first eight months of 2023, Tenerife has maintained connectivity with 29 markets, compared to the 32 with which the Island connected in the same period of 2019.

This difference is due to the cessation of connectivity from Senegal, Israel, Belarus, Russia and Ukraine.

However, Tenerife has had connectivity from the US and Slovenia, which did not exist in 2019, and with respect to 2022, Tenerife has one more market, 29, compared to 28 in the same period of the previous year.

In addition, during 2023, connectivity has been maintained with Bulgaria, Slovenia and Venezuela, markets not operated in 2022, although in 2022, unlike 2023, the island had connectivity with Russia and Ukraine, hence the market balance be one more for 2023.
