Govt. Reduces Cost of Inter-Island Flights
The Canarian Government and Civil Aviation have reached an agreement to reduce flight tariffs between islands. At the same time they have fixed obligatory public service routes and special concessions for youngsters (under 22), university students (under 27), the retired (over 65) and sports players (when travelling to properly federated matches or games).
One of the aims is to combat the "double insularity" suffered by residents who live on the smaller Canary Islands, by offering point-to-point services.
Obligatory public service routes from Tenerife North (Los Rodeos) go to all six of the other Canary Islands; Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, El Hierro, La Palma and La Gomera. From Tenerife South (Reina Sofia), to Gran Canaria.
