<p>Helping British nationals who need and want to return to the UK is one of the Government's
highest priorities. Since the outbreak in Wuhan, we estimate that over 1.3 million
people have returned to the UK via commercial routes - the majority supported by our
work to keep vital routes open. Additionally we have brought home over 31,000 people
on 146 flights organised by the Foreign Office from 27 countries and territories.</p><p>Special
charter flights will only operate for priority countries where commercial flights
are not possible. At the current time, there remain commercial options to return to
the UK from Spain. Our Embassy in Madrid have been working closely with the Government
of Spain, airlines and other travel providers to keep vital routes open and help bring
back British travellers to the UK.</p><p>Our consular team continues to work around
the clock to provide support, advice and information to British nationals in Fuerteventura.
Our travel advice and social media pages are also regularly updated to ensure that
those wishing to return are aware of further developments: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/spain</p>
