Weapon in the suitcase: Airport stop before Mallorca – a small panic with big questions

Answer

Why can a traveler still fly to Mallorca after a prohibited item is seized?

Security and police can confiscate the item without automatically stopping the journey, especially if the person is otherwise legally allowed to travel. Authorities may continue the investigation later if the case involves a possible weapons-law violation. That does not mean the item was permitted, only that the departure itself may still go ahead.
