Are there any tips for getting more legroom on flights to Mallorca?

Flights arriving on the island have seen shifts in seating preferences as airlines update their fleets and configuration. Generally, exit row seats around the emergency doors provide noticeably more legroom, allowing travelers to stretch out, though these seats may have fixed armrests or limited recline. Bulkhead seats are another option; positioned at the front of each cabin section, they offer legroom and a bit more space to stow your bag during takeoff and landing, but might feel a bit narrower.

Some carriers include ''extra legroom'' or premium economy seats on routes to Palma de Mallorca Airport, which can be worth the extra cost for added comfort on longer trips. If you’re flying with airlines like Air Nostrum or EasyJet, consulting airline-specific seating charts can help you choose seats offering more space. Websites such as SeatGuru also include passenger reviews and detailed layouts that highlight which rows are widest.

Keep in mind that while exit rows have additional room, you must be willing and able to assist in an emergency, and some seats in these rows might be near lavatories or galleys, which can bring noise or foot traffic. For those who prioritize legroom, booking early is advantageous, as the best seats tend to be snapped up first. Arriving rested after a scenic train ride from Soller or a bus trip from Alcudia can also ease travel fatigue, making a bit less spacious seating easier to endure.
