Twelve Minutes to the Airport – Does Mallorca's New Rail Line Really Move Things Forward?
Mallorca’s Planned Airport Rail Link and the Twelve-Minute Claim
The planned Palma airport rail link aims for a 12-minute ride, but the final time will depend on the finished route and service.
Published: June 01, 2026

Answer
Will Mallorca's new Palma to airport rail line really get you there in twelve minutes?
That travel time is the target being discussed for the planned line, but it still depends on how the final route, stops and service pattern are designed. The project also includes a longer trip time of around 30 minutes between Palma and Llucmajor, so the airport connection is only one part of the wider plan.
