The big shopping centre there offers every thing from All you can eat Chinese food to cheap beer and even Bingo for serious cash in one bar . We are Returning to the island with out grand kids in Late April but this time going to Playa Del Ingles at a posh All Inclusive hotel which we don’t usually do but hey hoo..fingers crossed and thanks again for these vids. 👍

      Yes, A.I. isn't really our thing either, we prefer to get out and about and try the food in various places. Good to help the local businesses out too 😊

    • @continentalcoxons
      @continentalcoxons  Год назад

      At the time, we didn't have to show anything. They were doing a few random checks at the airport but we got waved through. I think it's all been scrapped now though so you should be OK. Do check the UK government website before going just in case.

    • @continentalcoxons
      @continentalcoxons  10 месяцев назад +1

      The last time we checked a bag in, you do the tags but then have to take it to a desk and they put it on. Weighing it twice basically.

      Hi Matt, I'm not too sure as this was a year and a half ago now. I don't think you'll have to now as all that kind of stuff seems to have been abolished since. Last few holidays we've been on to different places,we haven't had to do it. We were in Ibiza in October and there was no need to do it there. I'd imagine the same would apply for the canaries.
