Domestic air fares in Spain were 11.6% higher in October 2026 than in the same month a year earlier, according to figures from the National Statistics Institute (INE). The national figures are relevant to people travelling between Fuerteventura and other Spanish destinations, although they do not show a separate price change for the island.
For the first ten months of the year, domestic flight prices were up 8.4%. International flight prices rose by 3% year on year in October and by 2.4% over the first ten months. Compared with September, international fares increased by 16.6%.
The increases came amid higher fuel costs and the conflict in the Middle East. The figures also show rising prices in other parts of the travel sector: hotel prices were 11% higher in October than a year earlier, while holiday packages rose by 8.2%.
Spain’s overall annual inflation rate remained at 4.9% in October, marking a third consecutive month above 4%.
