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 were travelling to the popular holiday destinations such as Playa de Las Americas or Los Cristianos your Tenerife flight would be into Tenerife south airport. The most popular holiday destination in the north of the island is 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 best beaches are in the south of the island which is why more families tend to holiday in the south of Tenerife. There is even a man made beach in the south built with sand imported from the Sahara. Flying times for Tenerife flights from the UK vary from around four hours to just over five hours depending on from which airport in the UK you are flying from. Obviously the further north you are flying from the longer the flight will be.

The destination you pick in Tenerife will depend on the availability of flights to your chosen part of Tenerife. There are lots more flights available from airports all over the UK and Ireland to Tenerife South airport than the airport in the north of the Island. In fact you are more likely to find more than one Tenerife flight into the south of the island than one to the north such id the difference in popularity of the south of the island.

Whatever part of the island you choose there is plenty of accommodation to choose from including villas, self catering apartments and hotels ranging from budget two star properties to the more luxurious five star hotels.
