Tenerife South–Reina Sofía Airport

Tenerife, Spain · Europe

TFS is Tenerife’s high-volume leisure machine: one clear Aena terminal, usually friendlier weather than TFN, and solid TITSA/taxi links to the south resorts — undone mainly by winter-sun security and passport banks plus chain-heavy airside food. Aena 2025: 13,969,678 passengers, 92,309 operations, 707 t cargo.
