Andorra-La Seu d'Urgell airport to offer year-round flights to Mallorca
Northwestern Catalan terminal to provide regular connections to the Balearic Islands following successful pilot scheme
The northwestern Catalan airport, Andorra - La Seu d'Urgell, located in the Pyrenees, will now offer regular year-round flights to Palma de Mallorca, as announced by the Andorran government.
Authorities decided to resume this connection from September until 2026 following the "success" of last season's pilot scheme, which saw an average occupancy rate of 70%.
During the winter season, 2,594 passengers traveled on the route, with the occupancy rate peaking at 94% in February.
Spain's Iberia Regional airline, Air Nostrum, will operate the flights between the two airports starting on September 28. The flights will run on different days depending on the season: on Fridays and Sundays between November and March, and on Saturdays and Tuesdays between September and October.
The airport already offers weekly direct flights between La Seu d'Urgell and Madrid on Fridays and Sundays. The current contract for this route ends at the end of the year, but a new public tender has been organized to extend the service through 2026.
In 2024, approximately 4,500 people traveled to Madrid from the Andorra-La Seu d'Urgell Airport, with an average occupancy rate of 52%.
