Answer

What should airlines do during a medical emergency on a flight to Mallorca?

Airlines should follow clear emergency procedures, keep the cabin calm, and decide quickly whether a diversion is needed. Crew members also need to know when to escalate the situation and when to call airport security or the police. On international routes that may end in Palma, good communication and de-escalation are especially important.
