Once you arrive at Palma Airport, your first stop will be baggage collection. Standard luggage will appear on the designated belt for your flight, but bike boxes are delivered to the Oversized Luggage area at Belt 17, located at the far end of the arrivals hall.
Most cyclists tend to stay on the east side of the island, and there are a few main ways to get there. The best option depends on your group size and budget. Below are the main choices with approximate prices to give you a rough idea:
Travel Options
🚌 Public Bus – Around £8
This is the most budget-friendly option. The 300 line is what you need, and the stop is just outside the terminal. Exit the terminal, walk straight ahead, and you’ll see Stop A32 on your right.
- Only 4 bike boxes are allowed per bus, and the queueing system isn’t always organised—first come, first served.
- You can pay contactless on the bus, and it’s cheaper to use one card for up to four people.

🚐 Shuttle Bus – Shuttle Transunion (£45 return approx, includes bike box)
A cost-effective and efficient shared transport option between the airport and your accommodation.
- They guarantee your booking with a maximum wait of 60 minutes (even with flight delays).
- Must be booked at least 72 hours in advance.
- Service usually runs April 1st to October 31st (check website for current status).

🚖 Taxi – £80 each way (split between 4 people)
Add around £5+ per bike box. A great door-to-door option, especially for small groups.
I recommend:
👉 Taxis Conde – Reliable service with larger vehicle options for bikes and groups.
🚗 Car Hire
Hiring a car can be a good option if you plan to use it during your stay, but it’s not the most cost-effective choice for just airport transfers. Prices have increased significantly in recent years, so it’s not as cheap as it once was.
