Crack in the window — what an aircraft defect means for Mallorca travelers

Answer

Why do passengers on Mallorca flights worry so much when they see window damage?

A defect that looks minor to airline staff can still appear serious from a passenger seat. People usually cannot tell which part of the window is affected, so the sight of damage naturally creates uncertainty. On busy routes to Mallorca, that concern is often made worse when the explanation sounds too technical or too brief.
