The runway was estimated to remain closed until about 19:30L (19:30Z), for about 10 hours, as result of the occurrence.
AENA, airport operator, reported that the passengers disembarked onto the taxiway, the tyres need to be replaced in the spot as the aircraft can not be towed with the blown tyres. The runway is estimated to remain closed until 19:30L though they hope to finish the repairs earlier and get the runway back into operation before 19:30L. As result of the occurrence 15 incoming flights will have to be diverted to Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Tenerife North.
The airport and runway resumed service about 4 hours after the rejected takeoff, when the aircraft could be moved off the runway.
