Latest airport reviews
have travelled through this airport loads of times with no problems ,however travelled back to the uk on the 4/01/2022 and was very disappointed, toilets were disgraceful , overflowing bins, no hand soap, no paper towels, and no hand sanitiser in any the machines ,Tenerife quite rightly so wouldn't let anyone in without double jabs so we could try keep there country as safe as we could .maybe they could extend the same courtesy back when sending us home to our own country's
Our suitcases that went through the hold-all had been searched and items taken from my husbands case and mine without our knowledge until we arrived home in Uk
We opened our cases and all my zips had been unzipped and someone had been into my handbag and taken out aftershave I’d bought my son. My husbands case had been searched and they had gone through his wallet and bumbag . We notified bank etc. but we want to make people aware that someone is going through the cases after putting them in the hold all. We will definitely be upgrading our cases with super locks for our next trips
Chtěla bych velmi poděkovat zaměstnankyni Letiště. Byla pro mě Andělem, jmenuje se Maria, nadosmrti ji budu zavázána, za její pomoc a ochotu.. moc si toho vážím, Děkuji, zmeškala jsem let do LONDÝNA, žádná cestovní kancelář mi nechtěla prodat letenku na následující odlet. Maria semnou komunikovala pouze krze překladač, neumím jazyky. Zkoušela různé možnosti jak mě dostat do LONDÝNA, Zůstala semnou i když měla po pracovní době. Její přítel byl naštvaný.. bez Maria pomoci bych se asi zhroutila. Odlet mi zařídila následující ráno, pomohla mě ubytovat na hotelu. Anděl Ještě jednou moc děkuji Klara
