Eight Minutes Instead of Three: New Punctuality Rule Infuriates Commuters

Answer

Will an eight-minute train delay in Mallorca still affect bus connections?

Yes, it can. In Mallorca, train, bus and ferry connections are closely linked, so even a short delay may cause a missed transfer in places such as Manacor, Inca or Sa Pobla. That is why a delay that looks small on paper can still matter a lot in daily travel.
