MADRID (Reuters) – International tourist arrivals to Spain fell 90% year-on-year in November, official data showed on Tuesday, after authorities imposed new travel restrictions to curb an increase in coronavirus infections.

Over the first eleven months of the year, some 19 million foreign tourists visited Spain, around 78% fewer than in the same period of 2019, the National Statistics Institute (INE) said.

Tourists spent 91% less in November than in the same month a year ago, INE said.
