Getting there<br />
Mallorca is an island in the Mediterranean, some 300km off the Spanish mainland.<br />
So unless you‘re an excellent swimmer, we do recommend flying. A wellloved<br />
tourist destination, the international airport, Palma de Mallorca Airport<br />
(also known as Son Sant Joan Airport), is not surprisingly one of the busiest in<br />
Spain.<br />
…from Switzerland<br />
Bern: SkyWork flies once daily (Mon,<br />
Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun) to Palma<br />
Basel: easyJet flies twice daily direct to<br />
Palma<br />
Geneva: easyJet flies twice daily direct<br />
to Palma<br />
Zurich: AirBerlin, Germania and Swiss<br />
fly direct to Palma<br />
…from Singapore<br />
There are no direct flights but regional<br />
carriers depart regularly to Mallorca<br />
from all major airports in Europe. For<br />
best transit options, we recommend<br />
flying into Munich, Frankfurt or Zurich.<br />
Singapore Airlines flies multiple times<br />
daily to all three destinations; Lufthansa<br />
and Swiss also offer daily non-stop<br />
flights to Frankfurt and Zurich respectively.<br />
…from Canada<br />
Iberia and British Airways operate<br />
flights from Montreal Trudeau Airport<br />
to Palma, via London Heathrow. Lufthansa<br />
will also allow you a night flight,<br />
followed by a short stop in Frankfurt.<br />
You can of course select Swiss Airlines,<br />
but they will make you wait quite a<br />
while in Zurich... which may not be<br />
worth the little chocolate square they<br />
give you on board.<br />
From Whitehorse or Vancouver, just<br />
opt on the Condor and make your way<br />
to Frankfurt for a short stop until you<br />
take the next flight to Palma.<br />
…and for our mates from various other<br />
spots across the globe<br />
We‘re sorry we don‘t have flight info<br />
for you but www.skyscanner.com sure<br />
does!<br />
Getting about<br />
Mallorca is a small island measuring just 80km east to west and 100km north to<br />
south at its widest points, so there won’t be any lengthy drives. The capital Palma<br />
is sufficiently small and compact to navigate by foot, and is also well served by<br />
taxis and a public transport network. If you plan on exploring the island, a rental<br />
car will give you a lot more flexibility. Some of the more secluded beaches and<br />
mountain villages are only accessible by car.<br />
Airport transfers<br />
The airport is just under 9km from<br />
downtown Palma.<br />

Busses<br />
EMT‘s Line 1 bus service runs between<br />
the sea port, the city centre and the<br />
airport every fifteen minutes between<br />
6:15am and 2:30am. The fare is €5, and<br />
can be purchased from the bus driver<br />
with cash. The bus stop close to Hotel<br />
TRYP Palma Bosque (our primary wedding<br />
hotel) is “Auditorium”. The trip<br />
there takes 33min.<br />
Taxis<br />
Under normal conditions, a taxi to<br />
Hotel TRYP Palma Bosque should be<br />
around €14 and certainly under €20<br />
(fares in 2016).<br />
Car rentals<br />
There are 5 car rental companies at<br />
Palma Airport. This would be a good<br />
option if you‘re not staying in Palma or<br />
if you plan on extending your stay to<br />
explore the island.<br />
