Published: April 21, 2026
Answer
What are the main problems still facing Mallorca’s bus network?
Three issues stand out: long-term funding, staff shortages and the shape of the route network. Better pay may help attract drivers, but Mallorca still needs a plan for recruitment, training and realistic service levels. Rural areas in particular can be left with thin connections if these problems are not addressed.
