Stopped before departure to Mallorca in Weeze: One case, many questions

Answer

Can someone with an outstanding warrant still fly to Mallorca?

Yes, in many cases a person can still travel within the Schengen Area unless they are checked by the police or border authorities. The Mallorca-bound passenger in Weeze was stopped during a routine check, but without such a check, an outstanding warrant may not come to light immediately. That is why travel and legal enforcement do not always match up neatly.
