Tenerife Sur TFS
Holidaymakers, families and business travellers looking for cheap flights from Tenerife Sur usually fly from the island's southern airport, while Tenerife Norte handles traffic in the north and the two are not interchangeable. Tenerife Sur (TFS) is the gateway for popular routes to Budapest, Warsaw, Krakow, Katowice, Chisinau, Bucharest, Berlin and Milan, and it sits in the south of Tenerife, well away from Tenerife Norte in the north. Check the airport code on your booking, because the two serve different parts of the island.

Getting to the city
The quickest way into the city is a taxi or pre-booked transfer from arrivals; buses cost less but are slower, and a hire car makes sense if you are driving to a resort. Leave extra time during school holidays and Christmas, when queues and traffic build up, and avoid relying on the last evening bus if your flight is delayed. Check your airport code before you travel, because Tenerife Sur and Tenerife Norte are on opposite sides of the island.
