State of emergency - Limited freedom of movement

Does anyone know why a flight from Madrid came in yesterday at lunchtime?

[Emmi Smith]

No, I don't know why, but I did notice it.  Maybe it was in order to take passengers back to Madrid in order to connect with other international flights out of Spain? Just a thought.

I thought there was still a daily flight from / to Madrid and it has been landing and taking off from the north but as the wind was stronger from the N yesterday they had to land from south.

There has not been one today and neither was there on Saturday and Sunday, and I can not go back further.

I thought it was a weekly flight for Madrid.

Just looked online and Iberia express are doing one flight a week to Madrid on Mondays.

After its weekly meeting on Tuesday, the Spanish Cabinet announced that children aged 14 and under would be allowed out of the home accompanied by an adult from April 27, a move that will be the first major relaxation of Spain’s strict Coronavirus confinement measures. However, they will only be permitted to go out onto the street under the same conditions that currently apply to adults - which is to the supermarket, chemist or bank.This means that minors will not, for now, be able to leave the house with adults to go for a walk in the open air. Youngsters aged between 14 and 18 will be able to make similar trips to stores unaccompanied, with authorization from their parents.

I understand the need for children to get out but I wish they hadn't included supermarkets in the equation! In Mercadona on Friday, before this relaxation, there was a boy if about 7 years with an adult but rushing around all over the place, bumping into people and trolleys, picking things up and putting down again, no control from adult at all. I wasn't impressed! I'll be even more wary going into supermarkets from Monday, problem is you don't know what has been going on before you get there. Think this is terrible idea - would have been better to let them out for a walk in fresh air with adult in my opinion.

Yes Tamara I agree with you completely.

Far better to just take them for a short walk, under control with an adult.

I totally agree with Tamara & OMR + MIN, lets hope that the supermarket staff are vigilant in controlling the kids and making them wear gloves.  The other thing they could have done is put a time window on when kids are allowed out to go with parents to the supermarkets so we could avoid them.

Still can't get over how they haven't implemented a one way system in stores as yesterday on 3 occasions I had to double back to avoid a congestion of people and trollies.
