Faro Airport - Good and Bad News Read Comments Below !

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

My gate B324 was quite a distance away up the stairs and there was another small lounge which you had a quick passport check from airline staff. There wasnt enough seating at the last lounge and a very long walk to the plane along the runway. Still good to have the passport stamp before duty free and bars !

Where do you get bus from faro airport to albufeira and how regular are the buses please

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

@@MichaelBrown-og8yr just outside main entrance, fairly regular but dont run later at night.

22 years since I was in Faro airport, looks lovely & about time TFS got there act together, thanks Kevin x

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

agree Faro airport much better, when you get to boarding gate it is a bit manic and the longest walk to a plane ever wish I had filmed it.

[@Helen-tw2lf]

Faro had improved since we were last there, they kept us outside the luggage drop and security check area with very few seats for hours. then opened up the luggage drop then we went into security area which was screened off to join s very long snake. There were hardly and shops or places to eat. We have loved the vlogs this week so many lovely memories. Thank you

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

thanks Helen.

[@margaretwhittaker9185]

Safe journey home Kevin thoroughly enjoyed your videos.

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

Thanks 👍

[@swineheartdoppleganger5516]

its good Algarve and the Faro airport has deffo improved. What puts me off as a solo traveller is that it's miles away from the resorts Albufeira, Portimao, etc £40 each way on taxi and there is no bus or train service unless you go on a package or your hotel is posh and arranges a transfer for you!

[@robertgray1756]

Yes, like the look of this departure area. Lots to browse and keep amused. Personally I do like to take it all in, thus getting the whole holiday experience. Got a few tales to talk about security etc but pleased you are winning. P.s. not sure how much Covid is effecting things but here on BBC webpage today they saying Covid on the increase with one in 65 people having currently got Covid...and that's just under 1 million persons. Thanks for showing.

[@andrewrothnie7275]

[@susanmcloughlin3930]

[@1959VC]

Really enjoyed this trip Kevin.

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

Glad you enjoyed it, more videos to come.

[@andyatwell1173]

Love Albufera been many times in fact I'm driving down to Lagos in September & will be making a visit there

[@steveh9229]

You should of kept the cap as a souvenir Kevin.

[@douglasthompson296]

Kev.I.N looked to have been a smooth check on process but so many times you have been flying by the seat of your pants timewise. At present you need every minute to get through Manchester airport. I'm sure any folks with relatives in Scotland/Prestwick area will be staying overnight with them for the easier flying experience from there. 👍 Cheers DougT in Mancs

[@alangebbie8848]

Fancy them not having The National at Faro airport I thought they stocked comics

[@davidsimms6792]

Spot in Kevin I couldn't have said any better the 2 checks on passport contol (the stamp ) needs to be simplified like Portugal have adapted at departures Dave 👍Than missing flights... Benidorm tomorrow I'll see what is like there

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

Enjoy

[@patrickmoran4171]

You should have a scotsman in Tenerife cap and a good merch idea so everyone would recognise you . Also a money spinner if not too much hassle and you should of brought cap home and gave it out as a prize . A brilliant trip and one of my favourites so thanks

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

[@ronniedorward7784]

Hi Kevin, re: passport control on exiting, I saw your vid on Alicante airport, we were there on 17th May and total nightmare, big "horseshoe" shaped queue wi no information and loads walking to the front mostly because they were not aware the queue was for PC. dread what it will be like ay holiday times

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

Yip needs sorting.

[@Gingerrogers124]

That booze was expensive if you shop wisely a 1ltr bottle of tanquray gin is £20.00. Great video as per 👏 👌

[@frankmcnally01]

1 Litre of Kracken in Scotland is £26.00, I think the prices over there have still to have VAT added, that makes it very expensive.

[@owenj]

Got fleeced in that Relay shop in October lol

[@garybarrel6822]

We have the same hates carlsberg and burger king chips haha

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

lol

[@lt5550]

I was wondering if I can get a local phone chip at the airport with a local number for my cell phone 🤔 I don't want to walk around with my business phone. Thanks for the video 👍

[@owenj]

There is a Vodaphone shop

[@natalievarney9102]

Have you heard about the 24th June strike with Ryan Air? I think it's just Spain? Hope its not Faro!!

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

Yip Spain I think

[@baz933]

Can you just walk into the airport, to use pizza hut, subway etc or do you have to go through security first?

[@reedsfromleeds6347]

With so many stamps on your passport it’s a wonder passport control don’t think your a drug mule Kevin, duty free! it’s cheaper to buy gin at Tesco

[@ScotsmaninTenerife]

Lol true

[@simonnlaroche5438]

You need a more discreet camera. Walking around with a monster will always attract attention. Checkout other YT vids for advice.
