Transfer from Palma Airport to the Cruise Port

Your cruise-port transfer starts in arrivals

Your flight has landed at Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI), but your ship and cruise luggage are still ahead. A private transfer from Palma Airport to the cruise port gives you a fixed price before you fly and a driver waiting in arrivals, ready to take your group to the terminal address you enter.

Arrive at Palma cruise port ready to board

Port de Palma sits on Mallorca’s south-west coast beside the Bay of Palma. The harbour brings cruise, ferry and commercial activity together, with its piers sheltered from the open Mediterranean by the western breakwater.

Where cruise ships berth in Palma

Cruise ships berth at Moll de Ponent, also known as Muelles de Poniente, and at locations along Dic de l’Oest (Dique del Oeste). Port terminal labels include Estació Marítima 6 beside Dic de l’Oest and, separately, Estació Marítima 2 at the Moll de Ponent.

Berths are assigned for each cruise call, so the ship’s name alone does not identify its terminal.

The ferry terminal and ferry companies

The ferry terminal is on Moll de Paraires. Baleària and Trasmediterránea operate from the port, serving the Palma ferry port.

Which terminal address should you enter?

Check your cruise documents for the terminal or berth assigned to your sailing. Use that address as your transfer destination so your driver takes you to the right place; berth assignments can vary between calls.

Journey time from Palma Airport to the cruise terminal

The road route is 20.2 km (13 miles), with an estimated drive time of 21 minutes.

Fixed daytime fares to Palma cruise port

The fare covers one private vehicle, one way, with VAT included. Your fixed price is confirmed when you book and remains final. With Pay Later, no payment is due at reservation, and no card is required at this stage. The driver accepts cash in euros or card; paying online when booking is also available.

Pickups between 20:00 and 22:00 include a night surcharge, which the booking form adds to the fixed fare before you confirm.

What your private transfer includes

Your booking gives your group a private vehicle, a driver waiting in arrivals with a sign showing your name, and flight tracking. The journey is arranged for the terminal or berth address you provide, with one vehicle for groups of up to 12 passengers.

Baby seats, child seats and boosters are free. The passenger total includes infants and children; each requires a separate seat. You can also bring your own child seat.

The average time from the baggage belt to the car is 7 minutes. Each passenger can bring one standard suitcase up to 23 kg, one piece of hand luggage and one small personal item. Declare any extra suitcase when booking; each costs €7.

How pickup at Palma Airport works

1. We recommend booking at least 48 hours before your first transfer. Add your transfer details when you book.
2. At arrivals, meet your driver in the arrivals hall (arrivals terminal) of Palma Airport, between columns 3 and 4, in front of the Paul Express coffee shop.
3. Look for your name on the sign held by your driver. Your flight is tracked, so the driver can account for its arrival time.

What happens if your flight is delayed?

A one-hour wait is included, timed from when the plane lands. If the flight is late, its delay extends that included hour; the covered wait can continue until 2 hours after the actual landing.

How the taxi meter works for the Palma cruise port

For a taxi from Palma de Mallorca to the cruise port, the meter follows the applicable Mallorca tariff. Its calculation takes account of the tariff period, distance travelled, traffic, waiting time and supplements, such as an airport pickup or a larger group. You can consult the official Mallorca taxi tariff or read our guide to Palma Airport taxi journeys.

With 89transfers, the price is fixed per vehicle and confirmed before you fly. Your driver waits in arrivals with your name sign, so there is no taxi queue; your flight is tracked with waiting included, child seats are free, and your group travels door to door in one private vehicle for up to 12 passengers.

Public bus services from Palma Airport

EMT Palma’s A1 runs between the airport and Palma centre. The airport is also served by TIB lines A11, A32, A42 and A51, and by EMT lines A2 and 34. The TIB airport connections page lists the regional services and the destinations they serve.

For a port arrival, a private transfer gives your group a driver waiting in arrivals and a direct ride to the exact terminal or berth address you enter, all in one vehicle.

Return trip from Palma cruise port to Palma Airport

The road distance and estimated drive time are the same in either direction: 20.2 km (13 miles) and 21 minutes.

The one-way fare back is the same as the outward fare for your group size. A round trip for 4 passengers is €156, equal to two one-way fares. For your journey after the cruise, set the port as the pickup and the airport as your destination.
