Answer

How much does Palma Airport affect traffic around Mallorca?

A busy Palma Airport means more taxis, shuttle buses, private cars and delivery traffic around the terminal and nearby roads. That can create delays and extra pressure on routes serving Palma, S’Arenal and the airport access roads. For people living or working nearby, the impact is often felt in congestion rather than in the airport itself.
