Taxi

The taxi journey from the airport to either Alcudia or Pollensa takes around 50 minutes and costs upwards of 76€ depending on how many people are in your party.

There are additional charges for transporting bikes and other sporting equipment.

Not all taxis have child seats.

It is often better to organise your taxi transfers before you leave home (a tip for next time).

Palma taxis are not familiar with rural villas outside of their area, so you can end up paying more because of the time taken to locate your accommodation.

Use a taxi company local to where you are staying is the best way to ensure a seamless journey.

Bus & Train

You can get to the north of the island by bus for under 12€ per person.

The number 1 bus from the airport takes you to Plaza España, which is the central public transport hub for Mallorca.

Here, there is an underground bus and train station, along with the Estació Intermodal Metro and Soller train services.

You can catch the tourist bus from here and learn about the historic past of Palma and it’s beautiful buildings.

The island train service runs as far as Sa Pobla in the north and Manacor in the east.

The train stops at Mallorca Fashion Outlet (Festival Park) and Inca for shopping.

Inca is the second largest town on the island, next to Manacor, which is famous for furniture and artificial pearls.

The summer bus timetable runs from 1st May – 31st October, the buses do still run during the winter months, just less frequently, and they do not have the big buses with the luggage storage underneath.

The bus stops in Puerto Pollensa have been moved again this winter.

At the moment they are still on Calle Roger de Flor behind the church however they will be moving in May to the newly constructed bus depot by the municipal swimming pool.

Due to the continued pedestrianisation of the seafront, the taxi rank by the marina has now been moved to the road adjacent to the church but will also be moved to the new bus/transport depot by the swimming pool.

A new addition to public transport this year is the AeroTib service.

This provides a direct service from the Airport to Alcudia, Playa de Muro and Can Picafort.

The stop is found just as you leave the airport at the PUBLIC BUS arrivals ground floor level.

Do not discount this service if you are staying in Puerto Pollensa, as the buses from Alcudia to Puerto Pollensa are every 15 minutes in the summer.

The timetables vary through the season so check current times at www.tib.org.
