Palma markets itself in the USA — but who is the city really for?

Answer

What is Palma planning to do with its tourism marketing in the United States?

Palma is organizing roadshows in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Chicago and New York, backed by more than €200,000 in marketing. The aim is to attract affluent visitors and broaden demand outside the high season, using direct flights from the United States and connections via Canada. Critics warn that without safeguards, higher spending could push up local costs and strain livability.
