Getting there

Flight & Travel info below

Current flight prices are not representative of what they’ll actually be for our wedding dates. It’s still too far out and airlines haven’t released their full flight schedules yet, so please don’t worry about the prices you’re seeing right now!

Booking flights with credit card points is an amazing option too.

Please arrange travel to get into Palma by Thursday May 20th, at the very least.

We recommend arriving in Mallorca on Thursday and spending one night in Palma, or anywhere else on the island, before checking into the venue hotel on Friday. Our first wedding event begins Friday at 2:00 PM, so we strongly recommend against arriving in Palma on Friday morning. Arriving a day early gives you a buffer for any unexpected travel delays or jetlag and ensures you won’t miss any of the festivities!

Our Travel Recommendations

Flights

Fly into Palma Airport (PMI) for travel to Mallorca.

For those coming from the US, most itineraries will include a connection through a major European airport such as Madrid, Barcelona, London, Paris, Amsterdam or Frankfurt before continuing on to Mallorca.

Use the flight tool below that we created for you!

Our favorite Europe travel hack: Don’t only search for flights directly to Palma! We find the best flight deal into a major European city, then book a separate regional flight to Mallorca. European flights between major cities and Palma are surprisingly inexpensive, and booking the trip this way saves you a lot.

We custom coded the flight tool to help you do this :)

Planning your trip

Please arrive to Mallorca at least 1 day before the festivities begin to allow time to settle in after travel and enjoy the island. Here are some ideas:

Idea No.1

  • Stay 1 or 2 nights in Palma to explore Mallorca’s biggest city then head to the wedding hotel on Friday for check-in & festivities. (You can do a lot of cool day trips from Palma as a home base)

Idea No.2

  • Explore other areas of the island before the weekend begins! (Also a must do idea for after the weekend, depending on your plans!) Mallorca is such a big and beautiful island, it would be a sin to not see the other parts either before or after the weekend

  • Look at the new tab we created called “Around Mallorca” on this website, it shares a ton of ideas all around island!

Idea No.3

  • Fly in on Thursday & book Thursday as an additional night at the wedding hotel. Then on Friday, you’re already there. If you choose this option, please email us so we can coordinate our special group rate for you.

Rental Car

We highly recommend booking a rental car. Not only is Mallorca such a big island with so many places to explore, but we found that 1 day of renting a car is equivalent to the fare of 1 taxi ride, so it makes a lot of sense to rent.

**For the best experience, book through a company you know (Hertz, Alamo, etc.) We found that the small companies we’ve never heard of required an international driver’s license, while Alamo didn’t mind. We rent cars every time we travel and have never needed an international driver’s license (confirm this with your rental company) but if you are interested, it’s only $20 and possible via AAA.com, just takes 5 days to process, so don’t wait last minute.

Passport

Confirm it’s up to date!

Getting to us is half the adventure. Let’s make it the easy half.

This is how we travel! We coded this custom tool for you to type the airport nearest to you and it will find the cheapest way onto Mallorca for you — routing through whichever European hub works out best, so you don’t have to think about it. Plus exactly when you should book, since early price tags don’t reflect how it’ll be when it’s time to book. No accounts, nothing to install. Just a really cool tool we’re excited to create for our guests!

Want to go even cheaper? · this is our trick

Book it in two halves and save

The big sites bundle you onto one airline the whole way. Booking the long flight and the little Palma hop separately often beats it, because cheap local airlines (Vueling, Ryanair, easyJet) don’t show up in the bundle. Totally optional — two quick steps if you fancy it:

1
Find the cheapest flight into Europe
Let Google lay out every hub at once and show you the cheapest place to land — no hub-picking required.
2
Grab the quick hop to Palma
From whichever hub won, tap its hop. Usually just €40–90 and 1–2½ hours.
Arriving a few days early?

Some people like to spend time exploring one of the European cities above before going onto the next part of their journey. If this is you, add extra days here and it will find flights to Palma after you’ve had a few days to explore one of these cities.

nights in the hub city before the hop

04 When should you actually book?

Don’t panic at today’s prices.

If you look the moment the invite lands, the fares will seem high — that’s normal. Airlines haven’t set real prices yet this far out. The good deals for Europe appear about 3 to 5 months before the trip. Here’s the rhythm:

Now
Browse & dream
Search to picture the journey and set a price alert on Google Flights. Don’t buy yet.
—
Book the big leg
The sweet spot for the US–Europe flight. Grab it when your alert shows a fair price.
—
Grab the Palma hop
Budget airlines drop their cheapest seats closer in — this leg can wait a little longer.
One move that helps: open the search, then turn on Track prices in Google Flights. It emails you when the fare drops, so you never have to keep checking — or guess.

Concierge notes on connections

Sweet spot
Aim for a layover of 1h30 to 3h. Long enough to walk between gates and clear passport control, short enough that you’re not living at the airport.
If you split
Booking the two halves separately means the airlines won’t hold the Palma flight if your first one runs late. So leave a comfortable buffer — ideally land in the morning, hop to Palma later that day — and travel carry-on if you can.
London
Don’t change London airports (Heathrow to Gatwick is a long transfer). Use the same one both ways, or land somewhere with a single airport like Madrid or Frankfurt.
Long wait?
If the only good hop has a 5h+ gap, lean in — that’s lunch in the city, not a sentence. Or add a night or two with the stepper above.
Keep it simple
Not sure? The one-search option up top keeps everything on a single booking, bags checked through, and the airline rebooks you if anything slips. A touch pricier, a lot calmer.
