Holidaymakers heading to Spanish party hotspots like Benidorm and Magaluf could face a longer wait to get served in the hundreds of bars and restaurants used by UK visitors. Hospitality bosses in the popular resorts have reported major staff shortages - with about 4,000 vacancies in the Costa Blanca area alone.
Despite more staff being employed as high-season approaches, there are still likely to be thousands of post left unfilled with many establishments blaming Brexit for the shortfall. Hordes of British youngsters for normally head to the party resorts for the summer to take up seasonal jobs in bars, shops and clubs, but new rules following the UK's exit from the EU means they are no longer eligible.
An estimated 25,000 young people from the UK worked in temporary jobs overseas pre-Brexit but that number has slumped causing the staffing shortages.
