Diversion Instead of Homecoming: What Passengers of Condor Flight 1561 Experienced — and What Now Needs to Be Done

Answer

Do airlines have to pay for buses, taxis, or extra costs after a diverted Mallorca flight?

Extra costs may be reimbursable, but it depends on the reason for the diversion and how the airline handles the disruption. If passengers are moved by bus after landing somewhere else, the airline normally has to organise the transfer or explain who is responsible. Keeping proof of spending is important if you later need to make a claim.
