Palma de Mallorca Airport Buses

From the airport, there are two city bus routes operated by EMT and four intercity routes, which connect the airport to many of the tourist resorts and towns around the island. The Travel Consortium of Mallorca (CTM) operate the intercity routes under the name Aerotib. Both operators’ websites are available in English.

The bus stops are a short walk from the arrivals hall and are well signposted. When returning to the airport, the city buses also drop off passengers at the departures area.

Tickets are purchased on the bus from the driver.
