Spain EES airport chaos
The rollout of the European Union's new Entry/Exit System (EES) has caused significant travel disruption at 24 major Spanish airports.
British tourists have reported waiting in queues for up to three hours to complete mandatory biometric registration, including fingerprinting and facial scans.
Airport operator AENA is implementing emergency measures to reduce wait times, but travel experts warn that the delays could persist throughout the summer.
Passengers are being urged to use the 'Travel to Europe' app to expedite their border processing and avoid missing flights.
