Spain’s Costa Blanca remains a top destination for British holidaymakers, but it seems that the influx of visitors is putting the airport’s infrastructure under serious strain
The main conceptual idea is the growing strain on Alicante-Elche Airport infrastructure due to a surge in British tourists, particularly in contrast to the Spanish government's response.
Despite the airport breaking passenger records, primarily driven by British arrivals, the Spanish government has only approved a terminal expansion instead of the second runway necessary to alleviate congestion. This discrepancy highlights a potential issue of the government not adequately addressing the capacity limitations resulting from the popularity of the Costa Blanca.
