✈️What is the best way to get to Majorca?

Most visitors arrive by plane, with the airport just outside Palma. Here are the most common ways to get there:

• By plane: Palma de Mallorca Airport is one of Europe's busiest, with frequent flights from across the UK taking around two and a half hours. It sits just a short drive from Palma and the coast, making it a quick and easy gateway to the island.
• By car: Once here, a hire car is invaluable for exploring the island's mountains, villages and hidden coves at your own pace. Palma is easily explored on foot, but a car opens up the Tramuntana, the beaches and the countryside, and most holiday lettings offer parking.
