Sent to Prison Immediately After Palma Landing: What Are Airport Checks Really For?

Answer

Are flights from Mallorca to mainland Europe control-free?

No. Flights within Europe are not automatically free of checks, and passengers can still be checked by police or border authorities. The Mallorca case shows that travel between European airports can still end with an arrest if there is an active warrant.
