Book your airport taxi transfer in minutes
Quick answer: A taxi from Mallorca Airport (officially Palma de Mallorca Airport, PMI) to Palma costs around €25-€35 and takes approximately 15 minutes.

Palma Airport gets very busy during Mallorca’s summer season (June to September). Even though the airport can handle up to 600 taxi departures an hour at peak times, long queues can still build at the taxi rank. If you’re visiting during the summer rush, pre-booking means you can skip the wait and get on your way.
Official taxis at Palma Airport run 24/7 from the designated rank directly outside arrivals. They’re white with a colored stripe along the side and an illuminated “TAXI” sign on the roof.
Airport staff manage the taxi queue and direct passengers to the next available vehicle. Larger taxis for 5 to 8 passengers are less common, though, so groups may need to wait longer or split across two vehicles.
As for the fare, Palma Airport taxi prices aren’t fixed. Official taxis use taximeters, with different day and night rates, plus an airport surcharge and extra charges for groups of 5 or more.

Mallorca Airport taxi guide: Quick transfers to nearby areas
You can book a Welcome Pickups transfer from Mallorca Airport directly to Alcúdia, Santa Ponsa, Magaluf, Cala d’Or, and other resorts across the island. Prices start from €39 to Palma, with longer transfers priced according to your destination.
Palma is just 9 km from the airport, so the drive takes around 15 minutes in normal traffic. The MA-19 into the city can get busy around rush hour, so allow extra time if you’re making the journey back to the airport.
Heading southwest, Magaluf is around 25 minutes away, while Santa Ponsa takes around 30 minutes. Both routes skirt Palma, so traffic around the city can add to the journey during the busy summer months.
Further afield, Alcúdia is north of the airport and takes approximately 50 minutes, while Cala d’Or is a similar distance away on the southeast coast, with a drive of around 50 to 60 minutes. Both resort areas are fairly spread out, so you should use the full address of your hotel, villa, or apartment when booking.
Welcome Pickups transfers start from €39 to Palma, €110 to Alcúdia, €50 to Santa Ponsa, €49 to Magaluf, and €105 to Cala d’Or.
Useful tips if you get a standard taxi at Mallorca Airport
- The airport taxi rank moved in November 2025. You’ll still find it outside arrivals, but Palma Airport taxis now leave from the right-hand side of the forecourt. Follow the current airport signs rather than relying on an older map or travel guide.
- Stick to taxis at the official rank. The airport advises passengers to avoid drivers offering rides elsewhere around the terminal, so head straight to the signed taxi area when you come outside.
- You’ll pay more at night and on weekends. The higher tariff runs from 21:00 to 07:00 Monday to Friday and all day on weekends and public holidays, when the rate rises from €1.20 to €1.35 per km.
- Heading into the mountains can cost extra. There’s an €8.52 supplement for trips to Sa Calobra, Cala Tuent, and Cap de Formentor, and a €4.26 supplement for some other mountain destinations, including Deià and Banyalbufar.
- Book an accessible taxi ahead. Palma de Mallorca Airport has a dedicated wheelchair-accessible taxi service at +34 971 703 529, so you can arrange the right vehicle before you land.
