Travel Arrangements and Airport Transfers

The Palma International Airport (PMI) is the closest airport to the hotel options and located around 8 km away from the city center. CIA will not provide airport transportation from the Mallorca Airport to the hotels but there are local options that will be available for you to choose from.

Using public transport, the easiest way to get from the airport to the hotels is taking the bus L1. Follow the ‘bus’ signs at the airport to the airport bus station (Aeroport – Arribades) and look for the bus line 1. It will take you around 30 minutes from the airport to the station ‘Passeig Maritim 33’, from where it is only a few minutes’ walk to the hotels along the prom. The bus departs on a regular basis, every 15 minutes. Further information on the local bus timetables can be found here: http://www.emtpalma.cat/en/lines-timetables. The bus ticket from the airport to the hotels costs around 5€.

You also have the opportunity to take a taxi from the airport to the hotels, which takes you around 20 minutes and should cost you around 20€ or you can hire a car directly at the airport.
