Murcia Airport Boosts Winter Travel with New Tenerife Route and Increased Flights

Murcia Airport is boosting its connections this winter, from October 26th to March, with 11 destinations in the UK, Ireland, and Spain. Five airlines will operate 37 weekly flights, including a new route to Tenerife North.
