The reintroduced route offers holidaymakers and cruise enthusiasts a seamless connection to Mallorca’s stunning beaches, vibrant cultural attractions, and delightful Mediterranean climate
Gavin Williams, managing director at Southampton Airport, said: “Our passengers were hugely excited when the return of TUI was first announced last year.
“It was fantastic to see our passengers on the first services which provides an exciting new travel opportunity for the Central South region.
“We look forward to welcoming more passengers on this flight as we continue to expand and enhance our travel options.”
Karen Switzer, TUI UK’s Director of Flight Capacity Management Aviation Planning said: “We are extremely excited to see the return of TUI Airways to Southampton Airport to reconnect travellers with the vibrant corner of the world that is Palma.
“We understand how important it is for customers to have access to flights from their local airports, and this latest addition brings the number of regional airport that TUI Airways fly from to 24.
