Ryanair postpones phase-out of paper boarding passes — Is Mallorca really ready?

Answer

Should I arrive earlier at Palma airport if I’m using a digital boarding pass?

Yes, arriving earlier is a sensible idea, especially if you are not fully confident with the app or your phone setup. Extra time gives you a buffer if you need to reconnect to Wi-Fi, find support, or deal with a boarding pass that is not showing properly. That is especially useful at Palma airport, where queues can build up quickly.
