Airlines will fly 2,713,621 scheduled seats from the UK to the Canaries this winter, an increase of 30% from winter 2019/20, while from Ireland, the increase to 289,063 scheduled seats is closer to a 40% increase on winter 2019/20.
Canary Islands Tourism said the increased capacity would meet "soaring" demand from the UK and Ireland, with people "swapping their skyrocketing energy bills for the archipelago’s subtropical climate".
The islands’ tourism promotion arm highlighted increases in Jet2.com, Ryanair, Aer Lingus, Vueling and Wizz Air capacity for the Canaries.
