The Costa Blanca has lost 80 percent of tourists from the United Kingdom, compared to the record-breaking year of 2019. The latest data published by airport operator Aena reveals that between January and November of this year, a total of 1.2 million British passengers used Alicante-Elche airport, compared to the 5.9 million in the same period of 2019.
These figures are particularly worrying for tourism, given that British tourists represents 40 percent of the international market in the province of Alicante.
