Airports on the map of Tenerife.

At the end of the 60s the island's authorities came to the conclusion that it was necessary to build new airport. Los Rodeos - old - could no longer cope with its functions, as bad weather they prevented it there.

In 1977 The terminal building and the command and control tower were already ready.

Yuzhny Airport.

For 3-4 euros you can take buses that depart from there to Severny Airport or the capital. Travel time will be 40 minutes.

Its runway reaches 3,170 m.

The northern airport on the map of Tenerife is indicated as Tenerife Norte. It accepts flights between the islands, to Spain and from America.

It is smaller in size than Yuzhny, but is also well equipped. Its location is what doesn't add to its popularity. Bad weather conditions add problems to pilots when landing or starting to take off.

Another reason why it is not very comfortable is that he doesn't work at night. Yes and During the day it is often closed.
