Palma Airport has removed around thirty pine trees from the area in front of the arrivals express car park, which is currently undergoing construction. According to Aena, the surface will be tarmacked to create a new area designated for public transport services, including Palma’s EMT and the AeroTIB buses which take tourists to Island hotspots such as Calvia and Alcudia.

This action is part of the airport’s remodelling project. The organisation emphasises that the purpose of this new space is to make collective public transport more visible as an alternative to private cars. The new facilities, which would see the current stops for both services relocated by a few metres, could be ready this season.

Aena also confirms that the uprooted trees will be replanted elsewhere within the airport grounds, in line with the company’s environmental commitments. The trees removed were all mature specimens except for one young sapling, which was still supported by wooden posts.
