Answer

Which Mallorca ports could be most vulnerable if ferry routes are reduced?

Smaller and less frequent ports are usually the most exposed when shipping companies rationalize routes. In Mallorca, that means local communities can feel the effects quickly if service is cut back, because fewer sailings also affect supplies, daily routines and port-side businesses.
