Both asphalt runways measure 3,000 metres and accommodate every aircraft type, from light jets to large business jets and airliners. This flexibility means your schedule dictates the flight, not the airport.

The two asphalt runways can accommodate all types of aircraft, including light jets, intermediate jets and airliners. Private movements are handled through the General Aviation Terminal (GAT), where five FBOs deliver discreet, secure and fast transfers between your business jet and your waiting ground transport:

  • SkyValet

History of Palma de Mallorca airport

In 1920, Palma de Mallorca airport was no more than a field near the town of Son Sant Joan. Initially used mainly by the postal services of the Balearic Islands, it was transformed into a military airport in 1938.

In 1958, the runway was extended and refurbished to accommodate a growing number of aircraft. However, the increase in air traffic made it necessary to build a new terminal. The airport closed temporarily for the works and reopened in 1960.

Expansion continued with the construction of two further terminals in 1965 and 1997. A second runway was also inaugurated in 1974. Spain’s third-largest airfield, Palma de Mallorca Airport handles over 27 million passengers. Today, it handles almost 200,000 movements every year.
