Advantages: Clean and Tidy, good shops Disadvantages: Expect panic at the gates if your flight is delayed
LasPalmas, on the face of it a tidy, well organised airport. Plenty of desks open to check in for flights and plenty of shops and places to eat.
Direction arrows to Toilets are hopeless, when you get there, they are often closed. Anyway, if you arrive at the airport and flight is delayed beware of a Gran Canarian habit. Don't believe them. Our flight was delayed, no indication of exact time, except it may be 30 minutes. Plenty of time for us to shop, eat and get bored you would think. Not a bit of it. Board says Flight Delayed, Gate 12 and continues to say this. We decide to go for a snack, as we don't know when we eat next. Next thing we know, the announcement goes up, Last Call for Gatwick.
Kepp your eyes on the screen. ...
Advantages: Clean, Good Selection of Shops & Restaurants for the size, Easily Accessible. Disadvantages: Uncomfy Chairs!
During my June trip to Gran Canaria I had the "pleasure" of being delayed within the airport for 5 hours which gave me plenty of time to fully note and evaluate all the amenities within it - therefore I feel a bit of an expert on this topic thanks to First Choice! In my vast experience of airports - from little more than a shack on the island of Zante to the posh heights of JFK in America - I'd have to say that for a small island LasPalmas airport isn't half bad!
LasPalmas airport was built in the 1930's and belongs to the Aena Airport group, which also has airports throughout Spain and Portugal. It's been voted the top airport of all the Canary Islands in light of passenger traffic, cargo and aircraft movements. It also operates 24 hours a day all year round and has been voted one of the safest airports in the EU. There are ...
Advantages: Lots to see, interesting sites mixed in with shopping, so you get both Disadvantages: Easy to get lost in Arab Quarter
Palma on the Island of Majorca is a great place for shopping and doing a bit of sight seeing.
We were staying in Palma Nova and being past the age when drinking all day in pubs and clubs, then flaking out on the beach seems a good way to spend a holiday, decided to find some 'civilized' life for a change.
There are buses from all round the Island into Palma. The City itself is big. Everything is so spread out in the modern part and we found ourselves walking a long way to find major department stores and designer shops on the main road. However, we eventually found a wonderful shopping area in the old Arab Quarter of the City.
This area is a maze of alleyways and small shops of all kinds. There are designer shops selling everything from shoes to hair accessories and woolly jumpers to delicate lingerie. It is very easy to get ...
