New signs have recently appeared in the departures hall at Palma Airport, pointing directly to the check-in counters of the individual airlines. A real relief for casual travelers.
Finally less searching around in the departure hall
If you only fly once a year, you know this feeling: you stand in the departure hall, see the crowds and think: where the hell are the right counters? Thatâs now over. At Palma Airport, new large-format signage has been installed, directly at the entrance to the departures hall showing the directions to the check-in desks of the individual airlines.
Where exactly are the signs located?
The boards stand immediately after the entrance to the departure hall, so you know where to go as soon as you enter. An arrow points, for example, straight ahead for Condor, to the left for Ryanair, to the right for Vueling â you recognize the airline logos and no longer have to go to the general display to look up the number of the check-in desk. I was there yesterday around 11:15 a.m. and checked it out: it really comes across as practical, especially when traveling with children or lots of luggage.
Which airlines are signposted?
All major airlines represented at the airport are listed: Eurowings, Ryanair, Vueling, Jet2, Condor and other carriers. The presentation is simple, high-contrast, and easy to read for those in a hurry. This is not high-tech gadgetry â rather good, clear design that serves its purpose.
Why this matters: In recent months the airport has undergone extensive construction work. Paths constantly changed, detours were common, and a few days ago Terminal C even had to be closed temporarily due to flooding. Such surprises make travel uncomfortable. The new signs are meant to prevent exactly that: provide orientation, reduce confusion, and avoid waiting times at the wrong counters.
What travelers are feeling now
For frequent travelers this may be just a small thing, but for occasional travelers itâs worth gold. No more frantic glances at the central display boards, no getting lost on long moving walkways. Also: when paths suddenly change, the signs help you choose the right route â especially in the morning, when the PA voice is harder to understand.
A downside? Only one comes to mind: If an airline changes its fixed spot, the boards must be updated quickly, of course. So far it looked neat, everything seemed freshly installed and well maintained.
Conclusion: A small measure, big effect. For everyone who will be taking off from Palma Airport soon, itâs a small but noticeable relief. So go ahead and pack your suitcase â and not your worry about finding the right counter.
Note: The information comes from on-site observations and official airport statements; changes due to construction are possible.
