🚨 NEW AIRPORT REGULATION FOR ARRIVALS TO TENERIFE 🚨
From today, all passengers landing at Tenerife Airport will be required to pay the new Sunshine Arrival Tax — a small environmental contribution designed to “balance the island’s solar usage.”
According to the announcement, the tax will be calculated based on:
• How sunny it was when your plane landed
• How pale you look compared to your passport photo
• How loudly you say “Oh my god, it’s so warm!” when stepping off the plane
Passengers arriving during peak sunshine hours (11:00–16:00) will be charged a higher rate due to “premium UV conditions.”
Those arriving on cloudy days will receive a Sun Credit Voucher to use on their next visit.
Please note:
Removing jackets before entering the terminal may be considered “premature sun enjoyment” and could incur an additional fee.
Only applicable for arrivals today - 1st April ☀️
