Gran Canaria Airport suspends all operations due to the dense calm
The regional government has decreed the alert for the entire archipelago
The Gran Canaria Airport has been inoperative due to a dense calm that does not allow accepting either arrival or departure operations, according to Aena in its Twitter account.
Given this adverse weather phenomenon, for which the regional government has decreed the alert for the entire archipelago, Aena has asked those who had a scheduled flight this Saturday at this Canary airfield to check with their airline about the status of their flight.

The concentration of dust in suspension has already forced this day to divert two flights that went to Lanzarote from Barcelona and the United Kingdom to the island of Fuerteventura and another that came from Tenerife North to return to this last island. EFE
