Departed empty, passengers left behind: A Mallorca case and the question of responsibility

Answer

What should I do if my flight from Mallorca leaves without the passengers who were asked to get off?

If a flight from Mallorca departs after passengers have been told to disembark, keep every piece of evidence you can: boarding pass, photos of the departure board, messages from the airline, and receipts for extra transport or accommodation. It is also sensible to contact the airline in writing as soon as possible and keep a record of every attempt to reach them.
