How about internal spain flights? I'm booked to fly Alicante to Palma in a few weeks. As a Spanish resident do I still get delayed at passport control?
Morgan WilliamsThe only trouble I've had recently has been at Gatwick where the airline blamed the delays on bad weather 24 hours beforehand! No problems at Palma. But the Uk's media love nothing more than having a go at nasty foreigners who all hate the British apparently.
Funny, many people arriving from the UK have been posting on social media that despite reading about all this airport chaos, they've experienced none of it. No tears, no nervous breakdowns, no PTSD. All a doddle. Could it be that we simply have more first time travellers? Or is it just sensationalism?
