Tenerife North Airport gets a new name

The Airport formerly known as Los Rodeos

The Canarian Executive has today announced a change in the official name of the Aeropuerto de Tenerife Norte (Tenerife North Airport) - formerly known as Aeropuerto de Los Rodeos (Los Rodeos) - and has baptized it with the new name of Aeropuerto de Tenerife Norte-Ciudad de la Laguna (Tenerife North Airport-City of La Laguna).

This modification is linked to the declaration of the city of San Cristóbal La Laguna as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1999, as reported by the Canarian Executive in a press release.
