Answer

Why is Palma airport often mentioned in Mallorca car theft cases?

Palma airport is a busy arrival point, which makes it a practical place for offenders to target vehicles or blend into traffic. If a car is reported stolen there, investigators may suspect a wider network because airport areas can support quick movement and anonymity. That is why airport-related car thefts often draw strong police attention in Mallorca.
