The number of flights from and to Spanish airports in September reached 94% of the number registered in September 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic ravaged the travel industry, flight controlling agency Enaire said today.
Enaire routed 191,069 flights in September to and from the country's airports, which are operated by Madrid-listed and government controlled Aena, 94% of the figure in the same month in 2019, the agency said in a statement.
The number of flights was 30% higher than during September 2021, Enaire added.
As most travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic were lifted around the world, the Spanish tourism industry has shown during the summer a swift recovery that seems to be continuing during the autumn.
