The Valencia government has ordered the closure of all bars, restaurants, nightclubs, casinos, theatres, cinemas, museums and libraries from midnight tonight to prevent the spread of the coronavirus in the Valencia region (which includes Alicante province).

This emergency measure will be in place for 15 days initially and then re-evaluated.

  1. What about the airports in Alicante and Murcia and Valencia ?
    Due to fly into Alicante in Monday but no advice as yet ?
