Palma de Mallorca Airport, also known as Son Sant Joan, is one of Spain's busiest and in summer one of the busiest in Europe. It lies east of the city, near Can Pastilla beach, and is Mallorca's only airport. From here you reach Palma Cathedral and the old town in a few minutes, and every resort on the island by bus or car.

Getting to town
- EMT bus A1: links the terminal with central Palma and the ferry port in about 15 to 20 minutes.

- Taxis and hire cars on the arrivals level.
Practical tips
- Documents: EU citizens only need a valid identity card or passport.
- Aena: almost all Spanish airports are run by Aena; its website offers car parks to book online at lower prices.
- Canary Islands: the islands are outside the EU VAT area, so customs allowances apply to some purchases on the way back.
- Taxis: in cities, fares from the airport are often fixed or include an airport supplement; ask before getting in.
