Fog paralyzes Son Sant Joan: Why visibility disrupts the flight schedule — and what could help now

Answer

Is Palma Airport prepared for fog-related disruption?

Palma Airport has safety procedures for low visibility, but recurring fog still creates pressure on schedules, communication, and ground operations. The main challenge is not only the reduced number of movements, but also keeping passengers, airlines, and transport services informed at the same time. Clearer real-time updates and better coordination would make these mornings easier for travellers in Mallorca.
