Palma on the Travel Pulse: Why the Airport Is Overcrowded on the First Holiday — and What It Means for Us

Answer

Why are domestic flights so important at Palma Airport?

Domestic flights make up a large part of Palma Airport’s traffic, especially around holidays when students and families travel between Mallorca and the mainland. These routes are practical for many passengers, but they also add heavily to peak congestion when many flights are scheduled close together. That is one reason holiday travel can feel more crowded than the timetable suggests.
