The largest of Spain’s Balearic Islands, Mallorca is also one of the most popular destinations for tourists. Now, for the first time ever, Americans will be able to fly directly from the United States to the Spanish island.

United Airlines has launched its non-stop service from Newark (EWR) to Palma de Mallorca (PMI). The airline will serve this route three times a week with its Boeing 767-300 aircraft carrying up to 204 passengers.

Until now, Americans departing from the United States were not able to fly directly to the popular island, often resulting in long trips that included stopovers in major Spanish cities such as Barcelona and Madrid.

United Airlines launches non-stop service from Newark to Palma de Mallorca

In 2019, nearly 30,000 people flew indirectly to Mallorca via New York. It is one of the most underserved destinations in New York without nonstop flights, which finally prompted United Airlines to act and integrate the new seasonal route into its extensive network.

Palma is the largest city of the Balearic Islands group in Spain, comparable to islands like Ibiza, Formentera and Menorca. Palma de Mallorca may in fact be even more popular than any other island in Spain and an extremely popular destination in Europe.

A non-stop flight to Palma de Mallorca this summer doesn’t have to be too expensive either if you know when to travel.

For a cheap flight to Mallorca via Newark, you’ll want to look for mid-September dates.

Airfare for this itinerary during the high season (July and August) is approximately $1,200 to $2,100 in basic economy.

The flight between the two cities takes about 8 hours and leaves EWR at 9:05 pm and arrives in Mallorca at 11:10 am the next morning.

This is a perfect itinerary for any new or even seasoned traveler as it leaves late at night, allowing time for dinner and (hopefully) sleep at night during the flight. The next morning you wake up early in beautiful Palma de Mallorca.
