Answer

What practical improvements could help save lives on the route to Mallorca?

Better aerial surveillance, faster sharing of coordinates, and a 24/7 crisis centre for the Balearics could help rescue teams respond sooner. The article also points to better use of satellite and radar data, stronger cooperation with NGOs, and emergency beacons that work better than ordinary mobile phones at sea.
