Tenerife Flights from the UK
There are two airports in Tenerife, one in the north of the island and one in the south of the island. The airport you choose will depend on what resort or area of Tenerife you wish to stay in.
The majority of Tenerife flights from the United Kingdom fly to Tenerife Sur Reina Sofia Airport which is located in the south of the island. If your chosen resort is in the northern part of the island you should select Tenerife Norte airport.
If you plan to visit the popular holiday resorts of Playa de Las Americas or Los Cristianos for example you would be looking for Tenerife flights to the south of the island, In the north the most popular resort id Puerto de La Cruz
The resorts in the southern part of Tenerife tend to be more commercialized and as such have more bars, restaurants and nightlife available for you to choose from. This is more apparent in the resort of Playa de Las Americas. In contrast the more mature visitor to Tenerife is more likely to head to the north of the island unless their aim is to get as much sun as possible. The north of the island can get cloudy so is not as popular for those wanting a tan.
The beaches in the south of the island are better than the ones in the north which is yet another reason why families choose to visit the resorts in the south of the island rather than the north. In the south of the island there is even a man made beach built with sand imported from the Sahara. Tenerife flights flying times vary from the UK depending on what part you are flying from, the average flight times vary between four to just over five hours.
Your chosen destination in Tenerife will also depend on the availability of flights from your local airport or the airport you wish to fly from. There are considerably less flights travelling to the north of the island from the UK as against the number you will find from most regional airports to the south of the island.
Tenerife has a massive range and choice of properties so no matter what part of the island you pick you are sure to find a great range of properties from villas, self catering apartments to five star hotels.
