The Shannon Airport Group welcomes the commencement of TUI’s new service from Shannon Airport to Majorca, which took off on Tuesday, May 6, and provides an additional 6,800 seats from the airport across the summer season.

The new weekly service to Palma Airport, Majorca commenced today and will operate every Tuesday from Shannon through the peak summer season, until 16th September 2025. This is the first time TUI has operated this service from Shannon since 2019, with this latest addition adding to its existing services to Lanzarote and Costa Dorada.
Majorca has long been a summer holiday favourite, as a renowned destination for sunshine, culture, food and music, while it also offers a wide range of family-friendly resorts, picturesque beaches and a vibrant social scene, for people of all ages to enjoy.

Welcoming the decision, Niall Kearns, Airport Director at The Shannon Airport Group said: “TUI’s decision to resume its Majorca service is really welcome news for Shannon Airport and indeed for this region as it will offer even more sunshine destination options for our passengers. We are delighted to be increasing our range of TUI options from Shannon to three weekly departures to Lanzarote, Majorca and Costa Dorada as well as TUI city breaks to both Paris and New York.
