IN Lately more and more of our compatriots refuse direct flight in favor of flights with transfers somewhere in Europe. And there are reasons for that.

First, it is often cheaper. And if you take care of buying tickets in advance and approach the issue creatively, it will be much cheaper.
Secondly, you can plan a tour of any duration at your discretion.

Thirdly, the choice of airlines is expanding significantly. In general, a curved flight is a reasonable alternative to a direct one.

Flight options are plentiful. To Tenerife there is regular flights from many cities in Europe, but most often Barajas in Madrid is used as a transfer airport.

The advantage of connecting flights is that both segments of the flight are purchased with one ticket. Even if they are performed different airlines(for example, Aeroflot flies from Moscow to Madrid or Barcelona, ​​and from there to Tenerife - their Spanish partner Air Europe).
Those. at the transfer airport, you do not need to receive and recheck your baggage, and if you are late for the second flight due to the delay of the first, the airline will solve the problem.

Popular connecting flights from Moscow
Airline	Departure	Transfer	Arrival
www.vueling.com	Domodedovo	Barcelona	Tenerife Norte Tenerife Sur
www.iberia.com		Madrid
www.aeroflot.ru	Sheremetyevo		Tenerife Norte

When you yourself make up a flight from separate segments, then the entire responsibility for errors in route planning lies with you. Allocate sufficient time for transfers, taking into account the need to wait for luggage, move around the airport, check in for a second flight and the possible delay of the first.

But on your own you can come up with, well, very budget options flight. So, the Ryanair airline will take you from Madrid or Barcelona to Tenerife throughout the year for minimal money. Accordingly, the task is to buy cheap tickets to these cities. Catch sales and good rates!

And residents of St. Petersburg will certainly appreciate some of the offers of Norwegian Air, especially since Helsinki Airport can be reached by car.

All direct flights from Russia arrive at Tenerife South Airport.

The South Airport is open around the clock, you do not need to order a taxi in advance - there are always a lot of them.

The car rental service in Tenerife is in great demand, and during the season there may simply not be enough cars for everyone. That is why I recommend using the Internet. When ordering a car in advance, you can pick it up directly at Tenerife Airport.

All roads in Tenerife are free. The resort of Las Americas, the capital of Santa Cruz and Puerto de la Cruz are connected by a highway on which you can accelerate to 120 km / h.

It is focused on serving inter-island flights and flights to the Spanish mainland. Also, guests from the United States of America often fly here. If we compare this air harbor with the South Airport, it will be significantly inferior in size. The thing is that initially it was not planned at all that there would be an airport in that place. Due to the fact that it is not located in the most favorable place, it does not work at night, and sometimes even during the day. That is why passengers rarely fly there. As a rule, tourists land at Yuzhny airport, as it is more spacious and comfortable.

It should be noted that despite its small size, Severny Airport has all the necessary facilities. There are cafes, restaurants, ATMs, shops, and VIP zones. There is also free Wi-Fi. In general, this airport has everything that is necessary for passengers.
