Hi

I live in the Uk but bought a house last year in Caleta, I am wondering if I am able to fly out to my house, I know every where is on lockdown in caleta but would still like to know if I would be able to go into my house.

Hi - I am here in Puerto Rosario on holiday with my hubby & friend as of 14th March. We are frequent visitors and this trip was part of our plan to look for a property to buy for retirement. Obviously things haven’t gone to plan from day 1 really !! At this point I am wondering if we will get our flights back on 29th ( they may get cancelled altogether). In that situation does anyone know of a possible rental opportunity for us ? Perhaps a holiday rental owner with guests not arriving ? We are all in the big unknown of course but just wondering if this may be an option. Thank you all for reading.

I have heard that ALL Hotels on the Island will be closed by Tuesday. UK Air Carriers RyanAir, Jet2, Thompson, TUI and EasyJet will be repatriating UK visitors by end of day on Monday.

Not sure how much of this is true as I have collated various messages from Airlines, Hotels and others sources.

I guess that would then make the Island one of the safest places to live until all the Pandemic passes.

As of today there have been 8,227 Deaths world-wide linked to the Coronavirus. In the UK alone each year over 8,000 people die from the Flu. We should therefore put things a little in perspective and not panic.

Just stay safe, follow advised medical advice and WASH THOSE HANDS.

First of all thank you for letting me join the group.

There are 3 of us flying back to the UK on the 29th of this month to Liverpool. We are a bit concerned that flights may be cancelled. If this happens does anyone know if we would be able to rent somewhere temporarily?

Regards

DOES THIS APPLY TO THE CANARIES, I THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY MAINLAND SPAIN?

Spain has declared a national lockdown.

You can read the full declaration here (in Spanish):

And also:

Here are the details from the Guardian in English:

"The Spanish government has formally declared a state of emergency over the coronavirus, placing the country in lockdown and ordering people to stay at home for the next two weeks unless they have to buy food or medicine or go to work or hospital.

The prime minister confirmed that people would be required to stay home from Monday morning and that all non-essential shops would close, along with bars, restaurants, cafes and cinemas.

Supermarkets, small food shops, pharmacies, petrols stations and pet supply shops are among those businesses that will remain open.

He said: “During the state of emergency, people will only be allowed out on to public streets for the following reasons: to buy food, basic or pharmaceutical items; to attend medical centres; to go to and from work; to look after children, older people or those with disabilities or who are especially vulnerable, and to attend financial or insurance offices on force majeure grounds.”

Speaking after a seven-hour cabinet meeting on Saturday evening, the prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, said “extraordinary decisions” needed to be taken as Spain grappled with a “health, social and economic crisis”.

Sánchez said the central government would direct the response and that all the local, national and regional police forces would come under the command of the interior ministry. He also said that the army was standing by and ready to help with the emergency response.

Sánchez acknowledged that the measures needed to tackle the coronavirus would have a “big economic impact” but said the government was committed to mitigating its effects."
