Videos have emerged of large groups of passengers queuing at Tenerife South Airport, as holidaymakers head back home. The queues have been dubbed 'awful' by Brits
There's nothing quite like a holiday to lift the spirits, but the journey can often be fraught with stress.
Security screening is mandatory for all passengers flying out of Tenerife Sur, which includes passing through a metal detector. Some may also be subject to a scan with a handheld device. TikTok user Claire Walters, under the handle @walters101515, labelled the situation "shocking". Scott Story, another user, shared similar sentiments in his own video post.
Another wrote: "We were fortunate enough last Friday to get through just before our plane left. What happens if you don't get through on time? How do you arrange another flight and do you have to pay?"
