For the completionists among you, let me clarify that Lund’s path through Gran Canaria airport mirrors that of a UK arrival passenger post-Brexit. After passport control, you will enter the baggage hall from the south and pass by the customs office on your way out. That office is the location of the fictional police station where our hero is taken after landing. If you arrive from the Schengen area, you will enter the same hall from the north. Long ago, there used to be a girl from the aquatic park there, handing out free Gran Canaria maps. I don’t think they do that anymore—after all, we all carry phones now—but you can still visit the Tourism Board office, also in the baggage hall, and peruse the brochures. Sometimes, an image is truly worth 172,251 words.
