Answer
Why do fuel prices matter so much in Mallorca?
Fuel prices matter in Mallorca because the island depends heavily on air and ferry transport, as well as goods arriving by sea. When fuel becomes more expensive, delivery costs rise too, which can affect supermarkets, bakeries, cafés, and small businesses. In Mallorca, that pressure is felt quickly and often shows up in everyday prices.
