FAMILIES have been forced to cancel their Spain holidays due to new rules which mean anyone over 12 must be fully vaccinated.
However, there is hope for half-term holidays as this could be lifted to allow teenagers to enter the holiday islands even if they haven't had both jabs.
President of the Canary Islands, Ángel Víctor Torre said they are looking for a "solution" to the problem which has banned teenagers who haven't had both jabs.
In the UK, some kids over 12 are yet to have both jabs.
This has resulted in "thousands of families" canceling holidays to some of the Spain hotspots such as Benidorm.
The hotel association Hosbec says they are suffering "thousands of cancellations" of reservations by families in the UK who wanted to take a holiday during half-term but have been thwarted by the new rules.
However, Mr Torre told local media that there have been talks with the government and Health Minister Carolina Darias to introduce a change to the rules.
This could be a single jab and a negative test, he suggested, with hopes of an announcement "in days".
