Two vehicles collided head-on at El Campello yesterday, Wednesday, March 5th, on the N-332 as it crosses Venta Lanuza.

The Cicu’s medical services transported the three injured individuals to various health facilities.

A 36-year-old lady with numerous bruises was sent to the Doctor Balmis General Hospital in Alicante, while a 20-year-old woman and a male were brought to a private hospital for their injuries.

Both accidents, the causes of which are being looked into, were assisted by the Guardia Civil and local police. Given that it has been raining almost all day in the region of Alicante, it is not completely ruled out that unfavourable weather conditions could have contributed to the disaster.

At Alicante-Elche Airport, EasyJet is now the second-busiest airline. Last spring, the company created a base at the Alicante terminal, which helped it raise passenger numbers by 12%.

The low-cost airline will now start two new routes with southern Europe, about a year after it first opened, as part of its ongoing investments in the El Altet airport. These are flights to Athens, one of the new destinations this summer at the airport, and Naples, which will be extended to the peak season.

EasyJet has terminated its connection to one of the UK cities, even though it increased the number of flights it operates in the spring and summer by nearly two digits compared to previous year. As a result, the airline will still operate flights to Belfast, but it will only link to Belfast City and no longer fly to Belfast International Airport.

This connection, which had two weekly frequencies and will no longer be available, was one of the new ones that came with the opening of its base. On its website, EasyJet lists three flights to Belfast George Best Airport, notwithstanding the cancellation.

Only on October 26th and 30th, as well as November 2nd, will flights from Alicante be able to reach this terminal. On the first day, the flight will leave at 7.20 am and arrive at 9.25 am. On the 30th, it will depart for Belfast at 3.30 pm and land at 5.35 pm. On Sunday, November 2nd, at 7.20 am, the final flight from Alicante will depart once more.

Nevertheless, EasyJet is expanding its frequencies in addition to keeping its connection to Belfast. It will begin operating its service to Belfast International seven days a week in March. In July, it will expand to nine weekly flights, with double frequency on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

In the lead-up to summer, Alicante-Elche airport will be cancelling more connections than just this one. Some airlines have announced the cancellation of flights to a number of their destinations, even though they are expanding during the busiest time of year.

Due to discrepancies in regional airport fees with AENA, Ryanair has discontinued its connection to Santander Airport. Additionally, it is discontinuing its route to Billund, Denmark’s LEGO city and one of its original routes in Alicante.

Another airline, Vueling, recently declared that it will be discontinuing services to a maximum of three locations. These are the links to Rome, Zurich, and Santiago. EasyJet, which has expanded to four weekly frequencies, will also operate the latter.

The ‘Survival zombie’ challenge, an interactive event set in several streets, will be held for the first time in Orihuela. Participants will be immersed in a post-apocalyptic narrative that is full of intrigue, action, and difficulties. “Orihuela will become, for one night, the scene of a survival story,” remarks Youth Councillor Anabel García. This event is scheduled for Saturday March 22nd and has been a huge success in a number of Spanish cities. Participants will receive preliminary instructions and the required materials to start the game at the Gabriel Miró roundabout at 10 p.m. As the game progresses, players will have to find the remaining sites by completing tasks and tests at various spots throughout the city. Fifty performers will work together to create the story and portray characters that will engage with the gamers along the way. The participants will feel as though they are in a horror film thanks to these actors’ superb character development.

With the help of the City Council, admission is 16.50 euros, with a 50% discount for those who are registered in Orihuela. Participants must show identification at the La Lonja auditorium in order to check in and obtain the required materials. You can register on the survivalzombie.es website right now.

Young folks 14 years of age and up are the target audience. It is advised that adults accompany minors to the event. It’s also crucial to remember that in order to register on their own, people must be of legal age. This event is being arranged for the first time, and the councillor encourages young people to take part in order “to experience the city in a different way and immerse themselves in an adventure of fun and strategy.”
