Ferry suffered hydraulic failure

A hydraulic failure caused a sdelay of three hours in the departure of the "Volcán de Tirajana" from the port of Santa Cruz de La Palma on the morning of May 9, 2025. The vessel departed at 9:12 a.m. and arrived at the port of Los Cristianos at 12:30 p.m., although it had to wait for the departure of the "Volcán de Teno" to La Gomera. During the stopover in the port of Los Cristianos, technicians were on board to resolve the problem, after attempts to resolve it the previous night during the stopover in Santa Cruz de La Palma were unsuccessful. The domino effect led to a subsequent delay in the connection with El Hierro, on one of the busiest days at the start of the weekend. The vessel departed Los Cristianos at 1:10 p.m. and arrived in La Estaca at 4:10 p.m., meaning the trip took three hours.
