Answer
What happens in Palma when a delayed flight from Berlin arrives late at night?
Late arrivals in Palma often mean longer taxi queues, slower baggage handling, and hotel check-ins that have to be adjusted. Rental car pick-ups and excursions can also be affected if passengers arrive much later than planned. Mallorca’s airport and tourism services can adapt, but the change often creates extra waiting for everyone involved.
