Smoking at Tenerife Airport

Hi

I was recently travelling through Tenerife South Airport and was completely astonished that there was no smoking at the airport. I understand new European legislation about creating a healthier environment for non-smokers but for this airport not to even have a designated area was completely absurd..

My departing airport of Manchester which is much bigger and much more commercial, has a separate section for smokers and this works well. At Tenerife the toilets were disgusting because of smokers using them, at least Manchester doesn't have this problem and has done things as not to offend any passenger.

I hope that I am not the only person to complain this summer and that eventually under duress the airport authority will put in place restricted smoking sections.

Many thanks

Hi Jenna

I would email the airport authority here: infotfs@aena.es here.

The more people that complain the better it will be!!!

It's strange that Spain have gone from one extreme to the other on the smoking front!

Last year people smoked everywhere and it was digusting, no they are huddled in the toilets!!

In my local airport Malaga, there are special areas for smokers so we don't have the toilet problem but at our local Department store, a very up market "El Corte Ingles" in Puerto Banus all the staff smoke in the toilets!

The think we are mad when we complain!

Thanks for bringing up your point

Regards
