On Saturday, 1,004 flights were scheduled. In the end, there were 950; this was due to cancellations. Between Friday and Sunday, there were 2,822 flights. These exceeded the 2,770 at Madrid-Barajas and the 2,506 at Barcelona-El Prat.

Airlines and tour operators in Germany, Scandinavia and the UK are pointing to Mallorca being the main Mediterranean holiday destination at the start of the summer; school holidays in Germany and the UK have contributed to this. This strong demand means that Palma is the busiest holiday airport in the Mediterranean at present.
