Answer

Do cruise passengers spend much money on Mallorca?

Cruise tourism can support some local spending in Mallorca, especially through day trips, cafés, taxis, and short hotel stays. But the direct benefit is often limited when passengers spend only a few hours ashore and are moved quickly between the port and tourist sights. The real economic impact depends on how much of that spending stays with local businesses rather than larger operators.
